Six prompts subway record attempt

(New York - WABC, December 28, 2006) (WABC) -- Six former classmates are getting together for a chance to break a world record for riding the subway.

The six guys came up with the idea during a class of 1996 Regis High School reunion. They will attempt to stop at all 468 subway station in less than 26-hours and 21-minutes.

Earlier this year, two college friends made a similar attempt. They finished in 24-hours and 2-minutes, but apparently they didn't meet standards set by "Guinness World Records."

Today's attempt begins at the Rockaway Park station at 3:30 this afternoon.
