Amtrak's east bound Capitol Limited emerges from Point of Rocks tunnel at Point of Rocks, MD on CSX's Metropolitan Sub on May 3, 2013. This tunnel was one of several on this former B&O main which was enlarged in conjunction with CSX's National Gateway project to increase overhead clearance to allow the passage of double stack trains. Point of Rocks Tunnel was built by the B&O Railroad 1867-1868 when they tunneled 787 feet through Catoctin Mountain. In 1902 the tunnel was enlarged, and brick facing on both entrances added an artistic touch.
