The Big Savage Tunnel is located on The Great Allegheny Passage Trail which runs 150 miles through Pennsylvania and Western Maryland. The GAP Trail is part of the Rails to Trails movement which creates multi-use public paths from abandoned railroad corridors. At 3,291 ft long, the Big Savage Tunnel was built by the Western Maryland Railway in 1912, and refurbished for bicyclists and hikers in 2003.

Love your image, Laurie! There is something magic in only railway tunnels. There are many similar like this one on the Ligurian coast in Italy from the times of the old steam coastal railroad.

I hope to see those tunnels some day!
The history and those who built them is fascinating to me. What is it about rail lines, trains, and tunnels that are so alluring?
