Bergen Tunnels
The east portals of the Bergen Tunnels.
The east portals of the Bergen Tunnels.
- ...that the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad built the Bergen Tunnels (east portals pictured) due to congestion on the competing Erie Railroad's tunnels? Source: reference 2

Created/expanded by Djflem (talk). Nominated by The Bushranger (talk) at 01:33, 16 November 2017 (UTC).
- New enough and long enough, well cited (almost every sentence).
- This text: "stabilizing and backfilling five existing ventilation shafts, removing brick, enlarging the tunnel with drill-and-blast techniques, relining it with shotcrete, and installing a drained membrane waterproofing system and cast-in-place concrete final lining." seems to be word for word from the source and needs to be reworded.
- Hook is short enough and otherwise fine. I could not verify it with the source since Google Books was not showing me all the relevant pages. But I found another source myself (1877 New York Times article) that also verified the hook (added to article).
- According to commons, photo is US gov public domain and looks clear enough to me at 100x100px.
