Description
"Carolina Railroad Trestle"
by Debra and Dave Vanderlaan
... An abandoned railway line
captured in the early morning
late in the Spring...
The tracks span the distance
between Andrews, North Carolina
and Murphy.
This line is called the L&N
for Louisville and Nashville
and is located
in the middle
of the Smoky Mountains.
The rails run straight
through a long tunnel,
shown here
at the end
of the trestle
spanning this small creek.
The tunnel was blasted
with dynamite directly
though the heavy granite rock
and makes for a very
interesting walk
through to the other side!

Oh wow ... cool find and capture!!! One of those places that I'm glad to read is no longer in use!!! And I'll bet the walk thru the tunnel WOULD be "interesting"!!! Not sure I'd have the nerve to do it, though!!!! f/v
