Hi all,
It's been raining like mad in NJ for two straight days. Tonight a friend and
me took a ride out on the cut off. We were in the Roseville\Stanhope\Port
Morris area. The ROW west of Roseville tunnel is in a deep cut for several
hundred yards. There is always water flowing through this cut, even in
summer. Tonight the water was over 18 inches deep in places. Was flooding
here ever a problem in EL days? I realize the ROW hasn't seen any kind of
maintenance since the 70's but like I said, There is always a brook flowing
through here.

Here are some pics:
pic 86 and 89 are inside the tunnel, As you can see part of the tunnel is
lined with concrete while most is natural rock. That is a large piece of
fallen concrete in pic 89.

Pic 94 shows a rock slide completely covering the EB main which passed
through where the trees\rocks are.

Pics 97 and 100 show the flooding in the cut.
