In time of WWII south of Slovakia became part of Hungary. That left isolated railroads in Slovak regions so decision to build interconnections came. More complicated objects like tunnels and viaducts were built first. With end of WWII these interconnections were no more needed so construction was stopped. Building of this tunnel was suspended even sooner because in 1944 there were war operations in this area. It was almost done at that time - tunnel itself was completed but rails were never placed. Coordinates brings you to side that is already done. Other portal is still in construction hole and now it is flooded with water. Also ceiling has falen just behind that portal, there is crater visible. In winter about 2000-10000 bats congregate in this tunnel for hibernation, so it's now closed. Please, do not disturb them.

Pocas druhej svetovej vojny juzne uzemia Slovenska pripadli Madarsku. Na Slovenskom ostali uzemi izolovane useky zeleznic, preto padlo rozhodnutie o ich prepojeni. Najprv boli budovane komplikovanejsie objekty ako tunely a viadukty. Po skonceni vojny boli tieto prepojenia zbytocne a preto sa ich budovanie zastavilo. Prace na tomto tuneli vsak boli pozastavene uz skor, kvoli SNP v 1944. V tom case uz bol takmer dokonceny, tunel samotny je hotovy, avsak kolaje v nom nikdy polozene neboli. Suradnice ta privedu na dokoncenu stranu. Druhy portal je stale v konstrukcnej jame a dnes je zaplaveny vodou. Navyse sa kusok za nim prepadol strop, krater je dobre vidiet. V tuneli zvykne zimovat okolo 2000-10000 netopierov, preto je uzavrety. Prosim, nevyrusujte ich.
