Broughs Tunnel – Clifty Falls State Park – Madison, Indiana
Brough’s Tunnel, located in Clifty Falls State Park, was an early attempt by the Madison, Indianapolis & Lafayette Railroad to build an alternate route between Madison and North Madison, Indiana. Their first route known as the Madison Railroad Incline Cut, was carved out of solid rock to bring the railroad down to the Ohio River in southern Indiana. However this route produced one of the steepest graded rail routes in the country, which proved problematic to maintain and operate. So in the 1850’s a plan was developed to bypass the Incline Cut. One of the artifacts of this attempted bypass was the incomplete 600 ft Brough’s Tunnel, also known as Brough’s Folly.
Today the tunnel is a playground for park visitors and in the winter hibernating bats.
Nada Tunnel – Red River Gorge – Kentucky
Nada Tunnel in Red River Gorge, Kentucky. The tunnel was originally built by the Dana Lumber Company between 1910 and 1911 to transport timber via rail. The Big Woods, Red River & Lombard Railroad hauled logs from the abundant forests of the Red River valley to a sawmill in the town of Clay. The tunnel is 900 feet long, and is located on route 77, in Powell County. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
