and while a lot of people take a subway or train to work, this one might be the most exclusive of them all. right now i m getting to do something very few people ever get to do. i m taking a ride on the subway car that travels beneath the capitol. it goes from independence avenue one office building over there into the capitol itself. this is how members of congress travel during the day. certain cars are reserved for members only. this ireally important when a member of congress has to rush back to this building to te part in an important vote. and by the way, in days gone by, it wasn t a subway car like this, instead, they actually had studio baker automobiles that traveled on little roadways under the capitol. and that s how people got back and forth. and what would a visit to one of america s most historic buildings be without a ghost story? here s a story most won t tell you about the capitol. these are the blood stairs.
