An abandoned subway station featured in the movie "Ghost'' is back in service -- as a storage area for equipment being used to extend another subway line.
The shuttered platform lies under the A, C and E line tracks at the Port Authority Bus Terminal. It once served special trains to Aqueduct Racetrack but has been abandoned for decades.
Now it's holding jackhammers, steel beams and other equipment for extending the No. 7 subway line. The project is expected to take until 2013.
Patrick Swayze's character in "Ghost'' learns to use his otherwordly powers to move objects in the abandoned station. The 1990 movie co-starred Demi Moore.
