I've seen similar tunnels on logging roads where I live near Portland, Oregon. The trees are cut/cleared to make way for the roads, and branches are cut back to keep it clear. Gradually, the tree branches grow over the road/track forming this emerald tunnel. Think of a tree-lined street. The only difference is that the vegetation is less dense on a city street. When a road/track is cut through a forest, these tunnels are formed naturally.
This beautiful train track is naturally covered by green trees and makes a tunnel. Located in Kleven, Ukraine, this train tunnel is named as” “Tunnel of Love” by local people. These incredible photos were taken by Oleg Gordienko
one thing I can tell you about this is that the crooked tracks ensure this a slow, bouncy journey for train travellers, and this 'tunnel of love' is used rather infrequently.
if you thought the Night Garden's Ninky Nonk train was fictional, just ride this track to the end...
"slow, bouncy journey" - if it is about love - I like it that way :)
The name is misspelled, it is Klevan. Klevan is a village about 25 km NW of the city of Rivne. It was part of Poland between WWI and WWII. This is an industrial track (apparently for a steel mill) and won't show on any map view, satellite is needed (I used Bing). Coordinates are 50.750726,26.045555, where the straightaway begins.
Here in the USA this type of track would be classed by the Federal RR Administration as Excepted Track (10 mph max, no passenger trains).
