Pönttövuori tunnel

The old Pönttövuori tunnel in 2012. after decommissioning

The Pönttövuori tunnel is a rail tunnel under the Pönttövuori hill, on the Jyväskylä–Pieksämäki railway line, in Laukaa, central Finland, some 17 kilometres (11 mi) east of Jyväskylä.[1][2]

The original, now disused, tunnel was completed in 1918, and is 1,223 metres (4,012 ft) in length.[3] It cost slightly over 2m Finnish markka to build (c. EUR 3m in 2023 money).[2][4] For several decades after its completion, it was the longest rail tunnel in Finland.[1][5]

It was decommissioned in 1995, when a new tunnel opened alongside it, to allow taller, electrified trains to pass through; this tunnel is 1,429 metres (4,688 ft) in length.[3]

Of these, only the newer tunnel is currently in use. The old one was sold by auction in 2024.[1]
