ST. LOUIS LIGHT RAIL
Once Steam

The old brick-lined tunnels execute a sharp turn along the way as the route switches from under 8th St. to under Washington Ave.   It seems strange to contemplate that steam engines worked underground here once upon a time. 

MetroLink fare is $2.25, with an all-day pass available for $7.50.  Like other modern systems, ticket machines are available at each stop, and proof of payment is required once on board.  Fare inspection seems to be somewhat more frequent than on many other systems.
