Founded in 2012 by Pete Reynolds and Bill Abbott, the Lisbon Tunnelmen is a collaboration of members formerly of the Thames BBC and Waterbury Connors BBC. The Tunnelmen were formed to pay homage and respect to first railroad tunnel in Connecticut and among the earliest railway tunnels built in America. Built in 1837 and put into production in 1839, the Taft Tunnel of Lisbon was built to connect Long Island to Massachusetts and is still in use today as part of the Providence and Worcester Railroad.
