Silver Run Tunnel #19 — Attraction in Harrisville

The tunnel is very dark and damp and is around 1,376 feet long. Great sound inside. It is said there can be “a lady in white” haunting it. I heard she was a bride running to get to her wedding and was struck by the train.

The tracks are gone and there is gravel that lines the ground. It’s can be very quiet inside and wild till you make the turn and can see the other end. It seems to be about 4 times as long as the Moonville Tunnel.  Friendly folks live near there and a few dogs including a super friendly Mastiff.

There are off leash (loose) dogs from the houses near the parking area. Be cautious if you are bringing your dog, and keep them on leash.

The tunnel is a little ways down the trail. Very easy walking. Bring a large flashlight if you do not like dark tunnels. The tunnel is about 55° F in the middle of summer, so it's great to do on a hot day. There is a waterfall around the entrance...
