New York City's subways were devastated by Hurricane Sandy, and the Metropolitan Transit Authority has embarked on the long road to get things up, running and back to normal.
It has huge, diesel-powered "pump trains" that are working on the subway tunnels. Deep underground, crews are pumping all that water back into the Hudson River. Each of the three pumps on the trains remove 1,500 gallons of water per minute.
"Everyone is working around the clock. Workers. Management. Nobody's standing around," hydraulic worker Tommy Dropp tells the New York Daily News.
The MTA recently posted some photos of a pump train at the Cranberry Street Tunnel, which takes the A and C trains between Brooklyn and Manhattan under the East River.
At the Cranberry Tube, workers connect water lines to the pump room.
The lines are brought down the tracks into the darkness.
They're deep in Cranberry Street Tunnel, which connects the A and C lines from Manhattan to Brooklyn.
