The link is dead but if you simply use the OPs title to search you get the phonebook and can read everything.
Sorry, if I had realised the link would be temporary I would not have posted it.

A German Tunnel from the First World War, Buried 30 Metres Deep, Discovered in the Oise Region in France

Certainly it relates to the same tunnel. While on holiday in France about 15 - 20 years ago we rented a house for a week. The owner drove me to a spot in a forest that was the entrance to a deep WW1 German dugout. He explained that this was the living accommodation for a large number of men but it was dangerous to go in there because of potential cave-ins. Going on to the far edge of the forest above a cliff there was a very good view of that part of the French line known as the Chemin Des Dames, a couple of miles away.
