Watching this while right up the road in Sterling, and I'll be driving right past it in like ten minutes. I've been through that tunnel more times than I can count. I really hope they preserve it so we can all continue to enjoy for years to come.
She’s been on for more than a month . Started when his video starts shot from a different perspective. He never advertises his personal life just in dribs and drabs .
Love the mineral build up and water flow - just beautiful. Great video again Post. Have been following you for a couple of years now and you sound so relaxed, confident and happy ❤ thanks for sharing
Great video... was surprised at one point when you turned around and I saw a flash of hot pink and I was like, is that someone standing there? Lol had to rewind...yup!
They converted some tunnels in WISCONSIN to bike trails, they put doors on the tunnels and closed them after it freezes. The tunnels would freeze shut and wouldn't unthaw over summer. So the doors keep them from freezing, then in spring they open them up for the bikes again. Years ago the railroads had a tunnel keeper live on one end of the tunnel over winter. He would open door to the tunnels on schedule walk to the other end open those doors wait for the train to pass, close the door and walk thru close the other doors until next train
Hiya Postie. Interesting video. Too bad that bridge is gone. I would have liked to have seen it. Nice seeing more remnants of the past. Thank you for taking us with you. Stay safe.
Love that you wear your own merch lol. Also love your hat. 😎 The town probably wants to renovate it so ppl can stop littering and vandalizing it. But it would be cool if they had local artists design a mural.
Having artists draw murals is a great way to prevent graffiti and vandalism. All the mailboxes in my city used to get targeted with graffiti constantly until they had an artist design a collage of area codes into a graffiti like design that looks really cool. They covered all the mailboxes with the design and now you never see graffiti on mailboxes anymore. Even when the idiots try it just blends into the design so you cant even notice it. So the idiots with spray paint just gave up. Another spot under a bridge was so bad for graffiti on the massive concrete pillars and not the nice kind of graffiti either. The city ended up inviting artists with actual talent to do murals and nice looking graffiti on them if they wanted to. They even made it into a skate park under the bridge and put in lights so people can go at night. Tourists even come to check it out now, as a kid we even went there as part of a school trip. These areas have no issues with graffiti anymore its just beautiful art now.
Another great adventure with P10! Loved it 💯✔️👍 Thank you young man, for taking us places some of us could never get to... OR through! 😂 I appreciate you so much, and I worry about you sometimes, too. Glad you have a buddy with you lately. 👏👏👏👍 Be safe; I think you are always prepared. 😉 PS the echo at the end was a nice ending.
The Wachusett reservoir is linked via an underground pipeline to the Quabbin reservoir. The water flows between them via siphon only, there are no pumps or anything. Always found that to be pretty interesting. The Quabbin reservoir is a pretty cool place to explore too. There are a couple of dams there and quite a few trails.
Hard to tell from looking at the vid, but it's most likely limestone as well. Hope you're not a Cowboys fan there, Tex....Brady did it again. You do NOT give him that much time and the ball at the end of a game like that.
One simple test you can do to tell if it's limestone is to drip some mild acid on it, if it's limestone, the acid will foam and bubble, because limestone is made from organic deposits from sea creatures. That same test also works for marble, which is basically limestone that's been heavily compressed during mountain building or cooked near a magma chamber, but it's still the same material that will react with the acid. Another test for limestone is if you look really closely, you'll often see some intact bits of shells that didn't fully decompose before turning into limestone and became fossilized.
I don't know the history of this tunnel, yet up in BC Canada, we have Othello Tunnels which were original train tunnels, that were converted into walkways. They had experienced heavy flooding and a wind storm that damaged the pathways. The year it was built was 1914. So might want to investigate the history of your tunnel.
Maybe they were able to get a skid steer up there from some direction other than the normal trail. When I want something like that sign to stay up, I have the nut tack welded to the bolt. Big washer also needed there!
Awesome video as usual Post10. Ahhh yes, I love living here in Taxachusetts. We make so much sense guy. Dont worry, they'll get the bridge made, come hell or clogged culvert water.
As always, your video was really cool. I bet on a hot summer day this would be refreshing to walk thru. I'd even like to walk thru naked. LOL The water dripping on you. Thanks Post 10 for sharing.
2 things: First, introduce us to your friend. 2nd if you have photoshop it would be cool to superimpose the Maine abandoned train inside of the tunnel. Just some weird thoughts. Loved the video Post 10!
Post there is the Phipps loop tunnel on the rail trail in Holliston you might be interested in. It was built in 1847. The interior is all brick and looks perfect for its age. About a mile down the trail is an 8 arch train viaduct also built at the same time.
I'm glad they decided to save the tunnel instead of just tearing it down or filling it in so it's not technically Gone Forever it'll just lose the sort of wild and Untamed uniqueness about it
That place with the big gate valve I actually worked at a landscaping company that had the contract for that place Very nice people at That place and video doesn't do the valve Justice just for how big it really is in person. Always love your content aswell
The Snoqualmie Tunnel in Washington state is 2.3 miles long with NO LIGHTING whatsoever. Plus it curves a bit so you can't see the other end when you head in. Open to the public in the summer but it has solid doors which are closed in the winter to protect it against freeze/thaw cycles.
I thought the footpath had too many people walking along it and all the grass died because of this I would go up to the end of the concrete end of tunnel but no further, the rest of the tunnel will scare the crap out of me, it's just too dark for me, even with the light at the end of the tunnel
Massachussets sounds like the UK. In this country we can't do anything. The railway here spends £millions on fencing. Most of the disused infrastructure is fenced in or bricked up. Great informative explore.
I live about 20 minutes away from the clinton resevoir, I never knew there was a tunnel and all that there, theres also what looks like some supporta that likely attached to that tunnel if you hop on 62, they will be on the left after the 4-way stop with train tracks
If there was a lot of people in there I’d bring my awesome sound system and just play a train sound and being a real train horn with a giant spot light. 😂 even though there’s no tracks, that’s not gonna stop people from running anyway.
I'm assuming that's Rt 70 in Clinton. Funny, I used to live there for 8 years, drove up and down that street to Worcester and I never knew of the train tunnel. I did know of the damn as when 9/11 happened there were military personnel hanging out at the damn because it was feared an enemy would poison the water with something. One cold night I brought over a box of coffee and a pile of donuts to the soldiers there. Theres nothing more heart pounding to see several soldiers in full gear come out of the woods with automatic rifles pointed at your car. Anyway, they realized I was a regular townie who appreciated their help and wanted to give something back to help keep them warm. They appreciated the coffee and treats and said thank you. I went on my way and they disappeared back into the woods.
I've been meaning to pedal out to this tunnel along the abandoned line all the way from Waltham but I just haven't had the time yet. Hopefully I can get out there BEFORE the entire line is paved so I can take some good pics of the artifacts.
Bro you seem to appreciate graffiti.....you should try your hand at it. Here where I live in Bristol in the UK is where Banksy is from.....the city has plenty and it's beautiful.
I love that Bansky shredded the painting that went up for auction. The story behind it is rarely told. Everyone hears the same cookie cutter version out of media, but not a single one of them answer the most important questions regarding the entire event. Then they rub it in his face that it made the painting more valuable.
@@tribalismblindsthembutnoty124 whats the real story? Seems like it was purposely not fully shredded to me. Even the. Ideo of him making it showed bin holding the soldering iron like a pencil, it would have totally burned his hand the way he was holding it if it was actually on. I saw Banksy posters in Walmart and was conversing with am employee there who was actually am art major, and we discussing how the fact that the art was being sold there was kind of the antithesis of the message the art had to begin with, in a sense it contradicted itself.
Glad you have a friend to go with you to some of your adventures. I have thought about how you go places and I'm like if he is by himself I hope stays safe. Then you do very smart things and don't put yourself in jeopardy way far away from civilization. But glad to see someone with you just in case... :-)
I hope that pretty lady is with you. Thanks for sharing.

I see you have an accomplice with you now, good for you.
Anyone notice he was followed into the tunnel? Look, when turns around.
Yup
You can her twice
She’s more in shot at the far end when he opens the gates . Pink top . Odd that he never mentions her .
She's with him, no way a stranger would walk behind like that 19:08
She’s been on for more than a month . Started when his video starts shot from a different perspective. He never advertises his personal life just in dribs and drabs .
Love the mineral build up and water flow - just beautiful. Great video again Post. Have been following you for a couple of years now and you sound so relaxed, confident and happy ❤ thanks for sharing
The world needs more people like YOU!! Love the video Post10!!
Thanks for the tour, Brian. 👍😊🇺🇸
Who's Brian??
Find someone to get lost with and you'll never be lost again.
Good for you mate. Great video as usual.
Love from Liverpool UK
Enjoyed every minute of it, my friend! Thanks for filming!!

Thank you Post 10 for another a great trip. What a nice way to start my Friday and the weekend.
"We're going to make the whole area smell like a fart. Pretty cool!" Damn that was funny!
Another great adventure with P10! Loved it 💯✔️👍

Awesome video as always, amazing tour. Thank you for sharing.
Your videos are always entertaining, whether it's drain clearing,culvert clearing or exploring. I'm glad I found your channel
This was cool! And it's nice to see that you have some company on your adventures, apart from the spiders I mean. 🙂
Loved the still photos at the end, captured some of the essence of the place.
I really enjoy your videos thankyou for making and sharing them. I have found them ta be very interesting and informative so once again thankyou

I felt I was there walking along, and enjoying the conversation in person. Stay safe
Great lighting post 10 👍
Thanks for the upload
Love the echo and the unique sounds. Cheers
I feel like I'm on holiday watching these interesting videos. Some beautiful scenery
That is one fantastic tunnel! If I ever get there in person I hope it’s still like this…
Post10 sporting his own spider shirt. Well done sir, well done!
My aunt lived in Andover, up the road from Boston. Fond memories for me back in 84.
Keep up the great work Post, your awesome bro 😎 thanks!
That is such a cool tunnel with the sticky stink mud hazard trap. Great vid.
Great video post 10 that railroad will always be remembered thank you for all you do Post 10
OMG, I was so scared when you took that step into the mud !! Scared you would lose balance and fall !! Loved the Video :)
I really do enjoy your videos - and I'm really not sure why! Keep them coming!
for some reason this felt really creepy, with random figures in the distance
So I'm not the only one seeing other people when he said no one is there . Shits creepy
I think some rando was trying to follow Post but gave up when he got deep into the tunnel because of the water.
I think that’s his girlfriend, she even records a bit during 17:36 lol
love the vids, post! keep em coming
In Texas the mineral most often responsible for stalactites and stalactites is limestone. What is it where you live Post 10?
Hard to tell from looking at the vid, but it's most likely limestone as well. Hope you're not a Cowboys fan there, Tex....Brady did it again. You do NOT give him that much time and the ball at the end of a game like that.
Most likely limestone. It's fairly prevalent near the service in the Northeast.

That will be an interesting trail section for sure! Some tunnels on rail trails require you to bring your own flashlight.
I like the way you take us too different places and explain everything.
As always, your video was really cool. I bet on a hot summer day this would be refreshing to walk thru. I'd even like to walk thru naked. LOL The water dripping on you. Thanks Post 10 for sharing.
It appears that his precious April has grown into a pretty young lady...great video Post 10.

Great walk through, I have a abandoned railway tunnel in my area but it’s completely closed 😞🏴
You should check out the East Side Rail tunnel in Providence RI. Its huge and abandoned. I have been in it many times.
Maybe they put the gates up to keep people away from the machinery while they are using it. Great vid.
This made my day 100% better and my day wasn't even bad to start with!
I'm glad they decided to save the tunnel instead of just tearing it down or filling it in so it's not technically Gone Forever it'll just lose the sort of wild and Untamed uniqueness about it
This was an exciting trip through this tunnel. I agree with you that when it is paved over it will lose its charm.
That place with the big gate valve I actually worked at a landscaping company that had the contract for that place Very nice people at That place and video doesn't do the valve Justice just for how big it really is in person. Always love your content aswell
It's so cool that you're just as excited as we are to see these places you go.
Love you post 10 ❤️
Great video cheers mate very enjoyable interesting indeed. Chris from England.
Nice tour …I hope they clean it up and do that bike trail……that will be great !
Good video post! Cool echo at the end. 👍
That "Hey everyone" was edited in afterwards! Or "in post", as they say (Hah!) 😉 Good on him, though! 😊
I have never heard anybody so pumped!! If I was with you I would drink a glass of that water
Fascinating... kind of strange to see all that massive rock but still, water gets through.
About time you introduced your partner👍👍❤.
i was born and raised here, used to always go in that tunnel as a kid...
The Snoqualmie Tunnel in Washington state is 2.3 miles long with NO LIGHTING whatsoever. Plus it curves a bit so you can't see the other end when you head in. Open to the public in the summer but it has solid doors which are closed in the winter to protect it against freeze/thaw cycles.

The “uhhh” is strong when you’re upset. 😂
post10 has a partner now? Watch out beavers there is 2 of them !!!!!
"Hey guys, we're here at this big dam"
Beavers: *heavy breathing*
Thank you for the videos, post.
Totally great video Post... thanks again
Who else saw a person at 14:48 following behind him?
Edit: Saw them again at 19:09
3:12, 4:45
Another Ghost 10 sighting.
You should come visit The Mushroom Mines outside of Lawton, Ky. Abandoned limestone mine, lots of huge, pitch black, wet, tunnels. Spooky stuff
And I enjoyed this video a lot, thank you very much to its creator and also the 'ghost' who was following him around again! 😊
I'm glad we wore boots!
We? Have you been there?
@@Poebbelmann No I have not been there, Post 10 always refers to we, he does not speak of just himself.
Massachussets sounds like the UK. In this country we can't do anything. The railway here spends £millions on fencing. Most of the disused infrastructure is fenced in or bricked up. Great informative explore.
Reminder to myself: Don’t watch Post if you’re eating dinner. Choking hazard, as he might say something like “Giant Fart!”. 🤪🤪🤪
🤣🤣🤣🤣

You only have to make chainsaw sound.😁

Alaways nice never fails to impress me to see people going that extra mile for the right thinhg
This reminds me of a tunnel near by me. Queensbury tunnel. Yorkshire. UK. Very deep inside. Flooded at one end. Interesting history.
7:58 😂😂😂 somebody decided to get out of bed a spraypaint among us characters on a cave tunnel
Very cool - THANKS ! !
🙂😎👍
4:32 "Those things have been known to kill people" definitely rings true if icicles are as thick as basically tree trunks.
Was that your girlfriend in the red tank top?
Great Video Post 10,
Interesting tunnel with loads of graffiti,
I've never seen so much !! ..😃👍🇬🇧
Pinky and Brain XD great, now the theme is stuck in my head...
I absolutely love your tee shirt. I hate spiders. Need a shirt like that one. That is a really cool tunnel. Great fun video.
You should get a drone, I think it would go great with your videos' cinematography
I love the wading through the mud scene.
If post10 had to blur out all the graffiti to prevent highlighting the vandals, the video would be a pixelated mess.
22:42 -- Hydra Tech of Sterling, Massachusetts -- about 9 miles / 14.4 km from the tunnel that post 10 was exploring
Thanks love the videos did notice you have a flower fill us in . Thanks always look forward to see next video.

12:50 The person you were with scared me for a second when they moved. For the first half of the video I thought you were alone.
Glad you have a friend to go with you to some of your adventures. I have thought about how you go places and I'm like if he is by himself I hope stays safe. Then you do very smart things and don't put yourself in jeopardy way far away from civilization. But glad to see someone with you just in case... :-)
Is that quartz rock in the tunnel? Great video and your lighting worked awesome. THANKS AND STAY SAFE
"I have a nice rock
-J "
LMFAO
