    I explore the various abandoned and decrepit buildings and locations that pepper the world. These places are remnants of the past, and I enjoy documenting them for all to see before they succumb to man or Mother Nature. Join me as I enter the belly of the beast and show you what these abandoned buildings have to offer on the inside. Happy Hunting and I wish everyone safe explorations :)
    NEVER VANDALIZE, NEVER STEAL, NEVER BREAK IN.

    The big fans is the Evac system to push out the exhaust fumes and smog and circulates fresh air in the tunnel so you that you don't die if you got your car windows rolled down

    You were giving me heart palpitations when filming while biking riding!!! Aww! I wanted to see the second tunnel!
    PS-I came and went to Galena-today! It’s gorgeous. Unfortunately, the weather was rain all day. But made the best of it!

    Anyone else get nervous each time they got near a hole in the ground above the first tunnel or when they were walking along the edge by the exhaust fans and thinking "PLEASE don't slip and fall down"?

    I've driven on the PA Turnpike countless times between Chicago and DC, and never knew about these old tunnels. Really cool video as always! This must be Ray's Hill Tunnel, based on the photo on "Fast Facts About Ray's Hill Tunnel" webpage. Interesting that after being closed, it was still lit and guarded until 1973, and then was boarded up. Then in 1988 it was re-opened for biking and walking... even though it's pitch dark inside! You are right about the exhaust fans... they are only at one end, unlike the other tunnels. Hard to believe they are still there. Keep up the awesome work, man!

    My typical gear for the Abandoned Pa Turnpike is my DSLR and my 18-55mm kit lens and my Zoom lens. also my 70watt 96 LED Video light. Also my Canon Vixua R300 camcorder. Camcorder sucks in the tunnels even with the video light. But my Canon T3i did well with it's higher iso for video in Sideling Hill.

    Very cool tunnels, it’s amazing how long the stretch of road is that they left to decay, definitely a great spot for a bike ride.

  • @georgeowens7046

    I live about an hour from there and am always looking for rail/trails to cycle on. Some of the scenes from the Viggo Mortensen movie, The Road were filmed here.

    Very cool. I’m supposed to be heading this way within the next few weeks and this is a spot I was considering checking out. Would you recommend taking a bike for quicker ground coverage?

    • @lordexplores
      @lordexplores  4 года назад +1

      Definitely. It's a 13 mile stretch of highway. The first tunnel is a mile and a half from the start, and the second tunnel is 6 miles away. Took a while even on bikes
