    I would have to say the picture is taken from Brady Street , just as you would crest the hill between Olive Ave.and Weber Ave.
    The church steeple in the back ground looks to be the church at the corner of High Street and Long Ave. and the large building to the right of it looks like the old Courier Express building.  Look closely at the house on the right in the foreground, if you remove the front proch it looks like the red apartment building that is near the corner of Brady St. and Weber Ave.that sits on the right as you are leaving DuBois.

    I think it is a wonderful idea ....... I grew up in the area of the tunnel back in the 60's   and remember when trains used it daily ..... I would love to see not only the tunnel but also the two bridges ( 1 over Maple ave and 1 over Chestnut) converted to walker / rider use and even completed the entire way to Shaffer road (the mall area)  instead of becoming an eyesore and dumping ground  .... If you have never been on a rails to trails bike / hike path.... you should try it ..... we use the one in Brockway all the time and have ridden just short of being in Ridgway it is very a peaceful and very beautiful trail ....  I believe it would be a welcomed addition the  community and would also cut down on the congestion of bike and walkers on beaver walkway.
