I was just wondering why, of all the subway systems in the world, the author would pick Boston, which as far as I can see in 1952 had all of 3 "real" subway lines plus the Green Line, which at that time was probably still a streetcar? According to Wikipedia, he didn't even have any connection to Boston...

The author (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armin_Joseph_Deutsch) spent some time working for Harvard (which has an MBTA subway station), including as a lecturer. The story features a Harvard professor whom both explains and is ensnared by the anomaly. We write what we know.
