It took almost 1 year to the day for the #1 train to run under the WTC
site.


A rather different kind of damage.

I agree with some earlier posters that the Northern Line incident at
Camden Town (where a train hit the tunnel wall at a junction) seems to
provide the most realistic equivalent. And don't forget that the Central
Line train that derailed (at Chancery Lane?) damaged the tunnel and
platform in the process. How long did that take to repair (rather than
understanding what was wrong with the trains)?
