The Shuman tunnel is only 300 feet long, but you can't see through it because it is curved. Located near Bloomsburg, Pa. the Reading RR used this line. I WAS WRONG ON SOME OF THE HISTORY - Here is accurate history from one of my viewers that lives nearby. --- The trains still ran in the 60's. I live right near there My brother in his 20's at the time helped the RR.tear.up.the tracks in.80's. I as a 60's child used to wave at my g.father (He worked for the Reading.RR.) as the train went through the family farm. Also, in the 60's I remember train derailments,thanks to a couple of local boys and a few quarters, and the snow pusher running the tracks after a foot or more of snow and ice, clearing the tracks...The info here and other sites are wrong..it was NOT 1953 when last used. More like late 60's early 70's. Subscribe and click the notification bell for more videos DD Explores P.O.
