HISTORY OF TUNNEL HILL
|
|
Tunnel at Tunnel Hill about 1910 |
|
Though not incorporated until 1873, buildings were erected in 1871 to house railroad workers who carved the 800-foot-long tunnel through shale and sandstone. Access to the railroad prompted farmers to plant crops of early apples for shipment north. |
