Step right up

For auction on eBay, I present for your perusal this little item: From the description:

Up for auction today I have a BOMB SHELTER. This shelter was made by the Canadian government and was designed to be buried, and at one point it was buried on a CP (Canadian Pacific) rail line in central Alberta. It was to be used by local politicians. I have heard many ideals on what it could be used for now from a smokehouse to a root cellar, to a hydroponics grow room, prison, dads hidy hole or maybe the coolest club house for the kids. That’s up to you if you are the winner, just like if you want to put it in the ground or not.

Now to get to the size of it, the MAIN BODY is 14 feet by 8 feet by 8 feet. The entry tunnel comes out 5 feet from the main body (making it 19 feet in total) and then turns up 8 feet, this pipe is 3 feet wide and is fitted with 7 rung ladder.

Starting price is only $2K Canadian and there are no bids so far. Own a piece of history! Posted by DaveH at August 26, 2005 11:36 PM
