World's Deepest Metro Stations
Many countries have facilitated their citizens with the metro trains for conveniently moving through public transport. The metro train owns different stations on shorter distances. The stations build for the trains may go underground or fly over the roads, rivers, mountains etc. It does not usually go underground beyond few stories. But the engineers have to go deep sometimes because of the geography of the particular region, such as the occurrence of swamps and rivers. One of the examples of such underground stations is Arsenalna, which is on the Sviatoshynsko-Brovarska Line of Kiev’s metro. This world’s deepest metro station is around 105.5 meters below the surface. The entire statue of liberty can be buried vertically in the shaft of such depth and still the 12 meters will be left to drop more things along with the statue. On this particular station, the passengers have to be in almost endless escalators for five minutes to reach the train passing underground. The escalator at Arsenalna metro station.

World's Deepest Metro Stations
This uncommon depth of Arsenalna can be credited to the geography of the city of Kiev. The Dnieper river has the rises of its banks above the city, the station is next to this river. The entrance of the station is at the top of the vertical valley. Before the train line goes inside the high banks of the Dnieper’s, there is Dnipro station which is situated above the ground, near to the bank of river. Arsenalna had to built on the same level of Dnipro to evade the steep lineage which required the entrance to be almost hundred meters above the station.

There are some other deeper stations as well in the different regions of the world that are worth mentioning. In the Portland, US, the deepest station of North America is Washington Park which is 79 meters deep into the earth.
