Here are a few more photos re this subject also a copy paste from a lancer thread information fron Jerry Dealey about a knoll drain collapse in the 70's will attach the photo, also it includes the link to Mike Parks anti, sewer research which i feel is only fair..but keep in mind earlier in this thread the information that differs with his dimensions of the size of the drains...your choice of course...and a couple of others thanks...best b.........if any doubles please delete from files...thank you...i think the man in the drain with the white shirt may be rex bradford, does anyone know...also here is Jerry Dealey's information...b
''Richard,
Go back and watch TMWKK carefully. They show him in the drain, and then walking off ON THE SIDEWALK. Then they cut to a walkable storm drain over BY THE TRINITY RIVER as the place they would come out. (I recall it was Walt Brown, but I could be mistaken.)
I have been in that storm drain, and at the bottom there is about a 14-16" pipe (I added 2 inches). A person would have to snake through that across Elm, presumably on their belly. Remember also that it rained that morning.
Some then venture that on the south side of Main the storm drains converge, and that THERE is a pipe large enough to crawl through (and I have NOT been down there).
At least that is how it is today. Some will contend that they have rebuilt Dealey Plaza. I do know of one 'collapse' on the Grassy Knoll by the street, in the mid-70's, and this is the steroscopic photo they made of it before the repair. It was just a few feet west (toward the Underpass) of the drain, and they slightly altered the street when they repaired it.(I will attempt to attach it.)
In fact, right here: http://www.jfklancer.com/draintn.html on JFK Lancer is the photos taken by Mike Parks in 1996. You can see down into the storm drain, and its position to the "X", etc''
