Just a fun short video that made me think of the idea of urban play we've discussed. This is a new "transfer accelerator" to make it faster and easier for commuters to get to the train at the station, but we can just call it a slide.  Maybe our commute could be a little less miserable if the MBTA installed these at all stops.

"HIK Ontwerpers capitalized on the opportunity to provide a unique and playful experience for commuters in their hometown of .  Part of a complete renovation of the Overvecht railway station the transfer accelerator, the official name given to the slide by ProRail the railway maintenance company, provides a fun and unforgettable way of getting to where you are going.  The slide was installed as the final piece of the station renovation and opened earlier this month."
