Seems like it would be usefull than the de commissioned ICBM bunkers people have purchased in the US...at least a tunnel would have a back door!  Big Smile [:D]

Hi 

Interesting post.  It certainly brought back a lot of memories from childhood.  I was born about an hours drive from where this tunnel is for sale.  

Thank you

Frank

Ever dreamed of buying your own railroad tunnel?

Now is your chance to buy a former railroad tunnel of the Bad Eilsener Kleinbahn in Bad Eilsen, in the Weserbergland area of southern Lower Saxony, Germany.

Included: 500m of former right of way, 8500 m2 of ground, a former coal mine and a bunker complex where, during WW2, the Focke Wulf Fleugzeugwerke were headquartered.

Asking price: 24,900 Euros.
