Some of these tunnels are little more than long bridges, however ten extend for more than quarter-of-a-mile. These provide useful evidence as to how the challenges associated with Queensbury Tunnel's reuse might be managed.
For context, we've added Queensbury and Rhondda - also the focus of a reopening campaign - and some record-holding tunnels in Europe and the US.
