More Pictures

4659  Elizabetha and Diana at the Gate leading to Object-42.
4664  This is the tunnel leading from the elevator to the bunker entrance.  Notice the steel walls with the welding patches for the connecting bars to the other steel wall through 6-8 feet of concrete.
4672  Missile launch control panels.  Like the USA, the Soviets didn't trust any single person, they had a dual system where both parties had to agree and do the same thing at the same time to launch a missile.
4673  Various technical items still in the bunker.
4674  A model of Object-42.  In the foreground you can see the Metro tunnel.  Then come the 4 cylindrical sections of the bunker.  The box like yellow building second from the church hides the elevator mechanical equipment.  Just in front of the Metro train you can see the opening for the employees to enter.  It's a red circle.
