After working Johnstown for a few hours, CSX 2692 slowly exits Hog Back tunnel south of Johnstown, PA with the southbound D703 returning to Rockwood, PA on the old S&C Sub. It only took 3 years of sporadic visits to finally grab this guy at the tunnel. I'll take it!
A concrete tunnel that leads from the depths into the light. The raw concrete, the broken lights on the ceiling, the emptiness spread an end-time mood. The narrowing of the passage symbolizes obstacles on the way to the light. Brutal architecture of the present with dystopian elements.

What would be a mundane tree tunnel in summer is briefly turned into a vibrant and beautiful scene which is why shooting in autumn is so desirable, nowhere more so than in New England.
The Winnepesauke Scenic's SW1000 #1012 leads a four car fall foliage special south headed back to Meredith on the state owned former White Mountain mainline that dates from 1853 as the Boston, Concord and Montreal Railroad. This gorgeous tunnel ablaze with the colors of the season is at MP 45.8 on the now state owned and Plymouth and Lincoln operated line. They are about to cross Depot St. / Route 32 and will pause for passengers to get off the train and admire the Ashland Historical Society's museum housed in the gorgeously restored circa 1860 passenger depot.

Rushing into darkness: a view through the driver's compartment of an underground tram into the tunnel connecting to the next underground stop. The dark circle in the middle is caused by the lens hood's reflection, which inadvertently also enhances the tunnel effect.
Dear all,
As this is a recycled account, I may have unfollowed you by mistake during housekeeping. Please follow me again and sorry for that.
One of the tunnels on the Monsal Trail in the Peak District. A railway tunnel where the Midland Railway line ran up to 1968. It has since been converted for walkers and cyclists to pass through with spectacular views from its elevated position at each end of the tunnel.
The creaking of rails and the resounding rumble of GE motors echo through Natural Tunnel as CSX trackage rights coal load C090 snakes its way through. They're are framed as they exit the south portal of the tunnel, making their way south for unloading at the massive Eastman Chemical Company in Kingsport, TN.
Natural Tunnel is a massive naturally formed limestone cave located in the Natural Tunnel State Park near Duffield, Virginia. The 850 foot long, 80 foot tall and up to 200 foot wide tunnel was carved over thousands of years as groundwater slowly dissolved the limestone. The railroad has utilized this natural oddity to haul traffic through the mountain since 1893 when the South Atlantic and Ohio railroad constructed the first tracks through the tunnel. This line would be a connecter from Bristol, TN, to Big Stone Gap, VA and the coalfields of southwestern Virginia. The line was later assumed by the Virginia and Southwestern Railroad 1899 and was dubbed the “Natural Tunnel Route”. The Southern Railway would acquire controlling interest in the line in 1906 and would run the "Lonesome Pine Special" until passenger service ended in 1939.
In 1967, The Commonwealth of Virginia purchased the property and the Natural Tunnel State Park was opened to the public 1971.
Natural Tunnel has been a tourist attraction for over a century and is one of the most iconic shooting locations for railroad photographers in the Appalachian Mountains. Today it provides passage for NS and CSX trains via Norfolk Southern’s Appalachia District.
Stumbled on this image I'd worked on, put away in a folder, and then totally forgot about.. until yesterday when I stumbled upon it. Henceforth, I doth post it. :)
The Cypress Tunnel leading to the abandoned Coast Guard Receiving Station is one of the most popular photographic spots within the Point Reyes National Preserve. The trees were planted in 1930 and over the years have created a canopy that covers the road leading up to the station.
Point Reyes National Seashore is one of the most diverse spots along the Northern California Coastline. Where else within a single day, can you observe tule elk, elephant seals, a lighthouse, historic dairy farms, an oyster farm, abandoned ranches, old defunct coast guard buildings, and lagoons bursting with waterfowl, all of them within a beautiful setting that is influenced and dominated by the mighty Pacific Ocean?
Welcome to June 2020.
