Tunnel Tuesday
This hidden gem of a "tunnel" is at Kelton, PA. Strangely, it is not perfectly round like most are. Maybe the upper bulge was formed into a shape like that for the exhaust stacks on the locomotives to pass freely. Who knows? It is quite a find on the old Pennsy side branch. The "drainpipe" underpass helps this East Penn train get by PA Route 796 without disturbing traffic above as the Octorano job heads east back to Pocopson to finish up the day.
