train tunnel

This is on the Madrid - Burgos line. In March 2011, an internal collapse trapped a tamping machine while it was performing maintenance. It was noted that this collapse was due to a lack of maintenance and the machine's age.

A follow up after the other report seemed to do so well. This is the other Underground section of the forgotten railway that was once on Malta. This section is at the other end of the line to the Valletta section and a lot shorter also. But I still rather liked it and some of the features of...

The line opened in 1883 and went from Valletta to the old capital of Mdina stopping off at a few other settlements between the two cities. It didn't run for long and was disused by the end of 1931. Mostly what is still left of the old railway is in the 2 remaining tunnels on the island. The...

An exploration I did in an old, abandoned train tunnel in 1876 in Nottingham. It was difficult finding this place, but I got there in the end and was very excited when I saw the entrance of the tunnel in the distance between some trees. It wasn’t an easy place to find, being in the middle of...

This is my first report, so please leave any tips in the comments :thumb Me and my friends plan on doing a full exploration of the Camden Rathole is a few weeks, however this was just to find a reliable entrance in and out, and a small investigation to see what’s inside. before our adventure...

So decided to go and check out the Mapperley train tunnel and sadly when I got there the tunnel was double fenced (took a picture with my smart phone as I was only checking the area out) Aside from that the area was a really nice area so will possibly be going back to take some pictures of the...

Came here with @plod and @Stan464, it was a nice little explore despite there not being much to see. The tunnel was about a mile long and as James said in his report it was probably used for transporting coal and metal for the Black Country factories :D plod I also have a short...

Hi All! I do apologise for not having to much history on this, im sure there is a few members of these forums that would know the History of the Dudley Train Tunnel. I would assume this was used to Transport Coal & Materials for the Black Country Factories back many moon ago! From memory, it...

I’ve seen a few pictures previously online of this place and they have always looked pretty decent so I thought I would go and check it out for myself. Unfortunately I had a limited light supply which didn’t help the picture quality but either way I thought it was a worth an explore and well...

I was in the area and felt like going for an explore, so after a bit of research I stumbled across this site. Location was easy to find and so was parking. I was a little under prepared as had not originally planned on going exploring, so can only apologies for the darkness of my photos, luckily...

Explored with Mike A (non member AFAIK) and Brandy, the semi cunning corgi. I'm sticking this up as I have never seen a report on this tunnel and indeed, there is very little information about it anywhere. If deemed Pit worthy, please move. HISTORY I have been trying to track this one down...

Visited with Wevsky, SpaceInvader and PaulK The East Kent Light Railway, opened in 1911, was projected primarily to serve the freight needs of the Kent coalfield, The line from Shepherdswell to Eythorne was to have run across flat land around a small hill, but disagreements with a landowner...
