London 'Ghost Station' Underground Map
(Click to enlarge)
'Ghost stations' is the usual English translation for the German word Geisterbahnhöfe. This term was used to describe certain stations on Berlin’s U-Bahn and S-Bahn metro networks that were closed during the period of Berlin’s division during the Cold War. Since then, the term has come to be used to describe any disused station on an underground railway line, especially those actively passed through by passenger trains.

Herbert Huncke reads @SUNY Buffalo Spring Festival 1966
Herbert Huncke reads 'Whitey' & part of 'Detroit Redhead' at the SUNY Buffalo Spring Festival in 1966. Only known recording—transferred from cassette. Sound quality pretty good—some clipping & distortion.
Student Q&A after 'Whitey' has Huncke fielding questions like: "What's hash?" "What's 'cracking a crib'?"
