The station opened in 1936 with six tracks and four island platforms, built as an interchange for traffic that never turned up. The shuttle using the outer platforms was discontinued in 1946 and half the station has been shut ever since. That dead half, underground and fully controllable, made it a film set. Martin Scorsese shot the video for Michael Jackson's Bad here in 1987, with an undiscovered Wesley Snipes in the cast.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
