Wild Rides

Executive summary by darmansjah

Fun is the new frontier for commuters. The Overvechts rail station in Utrecht, Netherlands, sports a “transfer accelerator” (a slide) that scoots time strapped travelers to the train tracks. In Singapore, Changi Airport’s four-story helix slide brings an amusement spark to your layover. And Shanghai’s Bund Sightseeing Tunnel, a subway line that runs under the Huangpu River, is like traveling to Oz. its clear capsule zips through a loopy kaleidoscopic light show set to a campy sound track.
