4.0 out of 5 stars
An interesting little book about drilling a RR tunnel.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Pinprick of Light: The Troy and Greenfield Railroad and Its Hoosac Tunnel (Shortline Rr Series) (Paperback)
This book describes the challenges faced by the people trying to drill a tunnel through a mountain in the Berkshires during the 1800's. This project was one of the first to use TNT, back when it was very unstable. Hundreds of men lost their lives over the course of several years and several attempts to build the Hoosac Tunnel.
