Calcite & Iron

Dudley railway tunnel, recently brought back into use as part of the town's new Very Light Rail test track.

 

The tunnel was opened in 1850 and carried trains until 1993. Considering it was disused for almost 30 years, very little repair work has been needed apart from some repointing and patching of a crack at the northern portal.

 

Taken on an NRR Tours visit.
