Type: Train Tunnel.
Status: Inactive / Abandoned.
During our first trip to Porsgrunn, we were just snooping around visiting some of the sites we knew about. One of the targets for the day was an old, abandoned industrial train tunnel which runs underneath most of Porsgrunn. The tracks branch of from the main line, run a total stretch of 1883 meters, or 6177 ft. in tunnel before exiting to a large industrial port site.Caveman 003 had wanted to go to this place for a long time after hearing about it. I had been there previously and knew it was easily accessible. After parking the car, and trying not to attract to much attention from a few youngsters playing nearby, we carefully crossed what once would have been a fence, but was now torn down, halfway concealed by small plants. A few feet later our dissappointment was enormous when we saw they had fenced off the tunnel at this previously open end as well. Still bummed out we took some pictures before moving on.

You would just love to see the inside of those gates wouldn't you? Well, we are not the first ones here, probably not the last either. Respect goes out where respect is due, so go check their pictures of this place. BarkUE , Olav XO, 28 Days Later . Great pictures by these guys.
Our journey to Porsgrunn would still turn out to be a major success though, 002 noticed something amazing by chance, but i'll keep that for a later post.
