two dashed lines (like a jeep road).
The program I use is ExpertGPS which can toggle
from topo to aeriel photos. Look for areas were the topography goes up and the RR line goes right through it.
If any of you are ever in Southern IL there is an abandoned tunnel next to the town of Tunnel Hill.
It's now a bike trail and there is a parking area next to the few houses in Tunnel HIll. The tunnel is a short walk south of there. A nice trestle is about two miles south on the trail so bring your bicycle.

Another active tunnel is farther East on another line.
Drive and park here.

Walk West a short distance until you come to a narrow strip off open field the goes south. Look for a brown fiberglass trail sign and continue on down a trail
among some very large and scenic rocks.
The head of the tunnel is at
N37 31.456
W088 41.837
GPS format D,M.M
A buddy told me about this tunnel a couple years ago.
Someone had a geocache there last time I visited.
If you are lucky a train will come through while there.
The tunnel is about 1.2 miles long according to
map measurements.
The trail down to the tunnel is on Forest Service land.
Like I said, this is an active track so stay out of the tunnel.
I may post some other info about RR tunnels when I have more time.
