Leonid Murlyanchik is not a very wealthy man, but he is using his pension to fund his very own, private metro system. The underground system of tunnels that burrows around his property is surprisingly up to code and has all of the necessary permits.
But the real kicker here is that in a few more months, the private metro system will be fully operational with tracks and trains. Leonid Murlyanchik has even offered to start building connecting tunnels to his neighbors if they feel inclined to join in.
