| William Wozniak posted 1976 it was gone....(RT jr photo credit)Peru IL tunnel under 4th st(RT 6) Bruce Liebe On one of my treks along the RI right of way, I started to follow the old roadbed and came upon this tunnel. Had no idea it existed until that day. I felt like a real explorer. Dennis DeBruler Is this the location of the tunnel? https://www.google.com/.../@41.3279648,-89.../data=!3m1!1e3 Bruce Liebe Yes, that is the spot. The local reference to Hebel's curve refers to a brewery (Peru Brewery, later Peru Products Company when prohibition took effect). The brewery sat just north of the RI tracks and still stands today. I was surprised that the tree cover obscured it to this degree on Google Earth. Dennis DeBruler http://towns-and-nature.blogspot.com/.../peru-il... |
