Abandoned Railroad Tunnels of the Eastern US
Photos from 2006 and 2007 of Sand Patch Tunnel (PA), Manunka Chunk Tunnel (NJ), and Oxford Tunnel (NJ).
A present day view from the center of the abandoned 2996 foot long Oxford Tunnel on the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western mainline. The Lackawanna Cut-Off opened in 1911, spelling the end to most freight and passenger service on this original route. Track was removed in the early 1950s, and today a stream runs through the tunnel from west (Oxford) to east (Washington). A collapse in the center results in two feet deep water at the western end.
