Redbank Range Railway Tunnel was opened in February 1867 and is the first railway tunnel to be used by the NSW Railways. It was eventually closed to rail in 1919 when the new deviation line opened. During World War II it was one of a number of disused railway tunnels used to store ammunition and other military supplies. The 592ft long tunnel was also used for commercial mushroom growing after 1950 when the RAAF moved out.
Most commonly known as the Picton or Mushroom Tunnel, it is the subject of many ghostly and supernatural tales. Strange glowing lights have been seen floating through and around the tunnel. Rapid drops in temperature and sudden breezes like those caused by an approaching train have been felt. The ghost of woman named Emily Bollard who was struck and killed by a train in 1916 is said to haunt the tunnel.
I drove past this shed today - alas there was some earth moving equipment in the process of pulling it down, I assume to enable an extension of the surrounding turf farm.

It's a great view from Mt Annan, isn't it!

Nice shot of the new line. I understand it is now complete and just waiting for the first trains to arrive!
