Engineer was beheaded while driving a camelback type locomotive. He was in a different area then his fireman. No one new of a problem until the train passed Quakertown station without stopping. The fireman then went forward to find the horror and stopped the train 🙃

Haunted by the conductor who lost his head. By a train going the opposit way in the tunnel.

Glad you found it! Didn't it seem like forever to get to the light at the end of the tunnel?

I live north of Quakertown and on certain nights you can hear an old steam train going up the rail-trail between Quakertown and Coopersburg. Supposedly this is the train where the conductor was decapitated.

I have a 5’x5’ map of S.E.PA from 1860, and the tunnel is represented on it.

I really like your videos and I'm retired with not a lot to do and I'm from Fleetwood Pa. and I'm interested in going on an adventure out there some time with you....if possible??

Wow! Super cool video, Jensyl. I bet it was so creepy cool! Thanks for the explore❤️

Where in Perkasie is this tunnel? I, myself, would not have ventured into this tunnel. Why is this tunnel not closed to people entering into it?

It’s not abandoned. Trains regularly run through it … for people who might try to go through it.

Not sure I would have been able to go in there alone. Very spooky.

Really enjoyed this video. I’ve walked through this tunnel more than once in my life, mostly as a kid mucking about around town. This tunnel runs under Ridge Rd and parts of Tunnel Rd off the ridge. That first big building you come to after the train station is Davis Feed Mill which is still in business to this day. I love living in this small town full of history. Keep exploring Perkasie, there is lots to discover.

The rail line is not abandoned. It is used for freight trains belonging to the North Penn railroad. The passenger trains Would run from Quakertown to Lansdale. There were talks about returning the passengers trains from Quakertown to Lansdale but so far nothing has come so far. The place you are walking by at 3:34 is a feed mill. There was a lumber yard and coal delivery siding. Fire destroyed the lumber yard and some businesses, houses I think in the mid 80s . There is a video about the fire in Perkasie.

They look like active rails in active rails would be rusted within a couple of days

I felt freaked out just watching you walk through that tunnel. You could hear all of the different sounds of the water dripping. It was have been a little scary. I also thought it was neat to see the ice formations in the tunnel.

the Line and the Tunnel Isn’t abandoned Is still Active From Quakertown to Telford and Back Use by East Penn

Very interesting video. Thank you for sharing this❤❤

The area at the beginning of the video was actually quite pretty, but the tunnel was definitely a little unnerving!

I did all my Summers there in Wilkes-Barre in the 70s

Love your videos kiddo grew up in Wilkes-Barre in the 70s

Thanks for the interesting vidio. My dad had many stories about it being a Reading RR engineer.

A late friend of mine found out his family was in the village that got condemned and flooded, before he died. He was trying to find out his family history there before Cancer got him.

Wow, that looks like a good ine to check out, especially now with the trees down. We find the best RR stuff when there's a little snow and no leaves. I have to get a hold of you and let you know if other really neat places that are RR related and one has a museum to check out.(with a working mill you can tour that has been on my list for 5 +years, and the ROW has stone bridge and mill race stuff that is really cool.

Cool place.

👍🚂👍

That was scary Jenny. The ice on the cave looked like teeth lol. Have a good one 😊

Spooky tunnel. Love how the ice formed in there. You've got guts going in there. I'd of freaked out. Lol.😂 take care jen.

If you're ever in Marysville, check out the road that tunnels under 11&15 so you can get to the Susquehanna River it's very old and made of stone. There's a side tunnel down inside that's blocked off with a gate.

you braved a cold day, I've walked thru a few tunnels here in western pa, i just don't like the ones where you can't see the other end ...lol. thanks for the video take care

Old equipment cabinets for the signals. The old Reading signals are still there. This is the Quakertown Lansdale line that ran from Hellertown yard under I-78 to Philadelphia. There is a lot of haunted places in this area

There is something quite unsettling about walking through a tunnel alone. All the different noises really play tricks with your mind. I’ve never been to the Perkasie tunnel. Originally constructed by the North Pennsylvania Railroad. This is part of the same line that runs through Quakertown. There is a tunnel a couple miles from my place called the Dilingerville tunnel. It’s the only active rail tunnel in Lehigh County. First time I walked through that I heard so many weird sounds. It was mostly water dripping but it really plays tricks on the mind. The Perkasie tunnel is still used by trains so be careful. Great work Jenn!! Stay safe.

Thanks for the tour. Even though isn't any NO TRESPASS sign, it's still a very risky walk in there: 05:07 to 05:30 + = swastika 05:50 = stalactites or icicles = VERY dangerous & can easily cause mortal wound if touched and caused to drop 10:50 = falling rocks = dangerous beyond all manner of speaking for the future, please wear hard hat, goggles, and thick soled boots to insure safety Look forward to your next video.

That last building was the bush house they rented rooms

I've never been there, but . I lived in lansdale, and perkasie and qtown loved living in Bucks County. Great video thanks, and brings back memories. I'm now retired in NC

If you keep going, there's a water tank at Rockhill from steam days. I would park north of the tunnel and go in. The all wood water tank is still there because it sits in water so no one can climb or mess with it. ( plus you're trespassing at the water tank). Owned by a quarry.

Im new to your channel and find your videos and content very interesting, being a rail road enthusiast....

Very cool tunnel! Thanks for sharing your adventure!

Yes, the holes up to the outside are for ventilation. Ice sickles are dangerous. Be careful when traveling on railroad property, no matter if it's in use or not. You have the best intentions but a meet up with railroad police might not go as well as one might expect.

You finally found it...congrats! Thanks for sharing your adventures!

Very interesting. Thanks for bringing us along. 😊

I'm looking a the tunnel.... looks cool, great video Jenn. Be safe looks spooky😮😅😅

That is cool. I'm thinking bicycle powered cart?

Thanks for showing the tunnel and doing the leg work ! Little bit of past history

Now you have to make a second video around Halloween, where you revisit the tunnel at midnight! 👻

You know when you got to the other end of the tunnel,it was getting a little creepy there😅.

Be careful 🙏 I'm sick of this cold.... I hear that hawk

That Tunnl is not Abandoned. It still used by the North Penn RR. The trains go from Lansdail to Quakertowm PA.

It was a Reading RR and maybe a North Penn RR line.

SEPTA operated passenger trains from Philadelphia to Easton, Bethlehem to Allentown before a six month strike.

That was pretty cool, never knew about that place. The rails seem a little shiny with no rust on the tops of them for being abandoned, and typically you will have small saplings grow between the ties if its abandoned, might be used every once in a while I suspect. Thanks for the vidyah.

Last I knew few years ago tracks were not connected from wye at Lansdale Yard north and I found the tunnel near a grocery store and I walked up over the hill. I couldn't find the norther part of the tunnel so I went up PA 309 I think to Allentown.
