A Train Runs Through It

            Active railroad tracks run right through the MIT campus -- and even through a building, as here at the new Brain and Cognitive Sciences Complex. And as the trains rumble by, they blast their horns to warn motorists on the many streets they cross, as well.

"There's a certain grittiness about MIT that I've always liked," said Skip after one such train went by. (I didn't get a good shot of it.)
