The Mouth To Hell • THIS TUNNEL is almost FIVE MILES LONG and runs DEEP under a mountain. Its history and lore is peppered with tales (many REAL) of murder, ghosts, and mass fatalities. If you want some grim reading, look more into the history of this train tunnel- a project that SO huge it made worldwide news and was know as the big dig of the 1800s. • The Hoosac Tunnel was an absolute marvel in engineering, but one at a great cost- an incredible amount of lives. The mere thought of tackling such a gigantic and expensive project to more-easily link east-to-west trade (from Boston and back) was thought to be insane, but it WAS completed. • Ultimately, the tunnel was finished in 1875- having taken 24 years to build. (I erroneously mention 1877 in the video). Whatever the case, its old, its creepy, but its incredibly intriguing. • There is a great documentary you can watch for free on youtube as well under Hoosac Tunnel Documentary. • I've long been wanting to visit The Hoosac Tunnel - a train tunnel cutting under the Hoosac Range between North Adams, MA and Florida, MA and finally had the chance to- while alone. I did ask one neighbor (a few houses down when asking for directions) who said it was fine to check out , but the No trespassing signs posted later on made me think he really didn't know/was wrong. I was already in the thick of things by the time I saw them, so I pushed on, and was respectful, even hiking out some litter with me. • I really suggest not going alone, as it can be a dangerous area, and well, if you even decide to go at all, its at your own risk. • There are a few who have walked ALL the way through the tunnel (no thanks). Its a five mile straight shot at a very slight incline (crowning in the middle for drainage), so at one point, the mere pin-prick of a tunnel entrance disappears behind you completely as you reach the crest of the trek. • I was introduced to the history of this place through the book Weird New England - which I LOVED • Here's a link should you want to check it out: http://amzn.to/2DfO1qJ
