Tunnleton, Indiana

This is a westbound Baltimore & Ohio train moving through the East Fork White River valley in southern Indiana. The small burg of Tunnleton appears in the third image here. This B&O line, between Cincinnati and St. Louis began life as the Ohio & Mississippi.

Apparently, the town was created in the mid-1850s when the line was being built—and lies halfway between Big Tunnel and Little Tunnel. The former still exists, but the latter was daylighted just prior to the turn of the 20th century.
