[edit]

We have been using this picture on the Hohlgangsanlage tunnels, Jersey page, thought it might help but I wasn't sure if this was the right railway so posted it here first.

This rail tunnel formed the entrance to Ho5

This is the correct railway tunnel. The line dug a tunnel in the late 1890's/early 1910's (don't have the material on hand but can look this up later) at this site. The tunnel was used by the Germans, and both 3ft and 1metre gauge tracks still remain in the tunnel to this day. TechnicalOtter (talk) 10:06, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Point of gauge conversion

[edit]

One wonders what possible advantage it could have been to change the gauge of the Jersey railway?

If you mean what the Germans did its because they used 60cm gauge (in their tunnels) and 100cm gauge everywhere else so they could use their own trains rather than having to modify existing designs (Fdsdh1 (talk) 02:20, 31 October 2012 (UTC))[reply]
