Tunel is a railway station located in former village of Tunel (Lesser Poland Voivodeship, near Miechow in southern Poland). Currently, the area of the village is incorporated into another village, Uniejow-Redziny, part of Miechow County. However, the station located on one end of a rail tunnel still bears the name Tunel. The tunnel, after which the village was named, is 768-meter long, and was built in 1934 under the Biala Gora hill. The station of Tunel is a main rail junction, where lines go into three directions - towards Warsaw, Krakow, and Sosnowiec.
