Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Black Rock Tunnel is an active rail road tunnel of the old Reading Railroad. The 1835 tunnel was the second rail tunnel constructed in the United States, and is the oldest still in use. The tunnel is also notable as being the first for which shafts were sunk during construction. The tunnel is cut through a hill in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, USA. The tunnel and line are now owned by Norfolk Southern. The Black Rock Tunnel was constructed between 1835 and 1837 and opened in 1838. W. Hasell Wilson was the resident engineer in charge. The tunnel was originally 1,932 feet long, 19 feet wide, and 17 feet high.
