I can remember trying to hold my breath from one end of it to the other. Dad would do it too, and he was driving… Then always slow down at the end and I would have to gasp for breath… It was about the only tunnel we would ever go through, right there at the entrance into Yosemite Valley.
There’s a new tunnel opening in the adjoining canton of Valais, and it’s a whopper. Check it out here.
21.5 miles long, trains will probably be able to pass through it at over 155 mph. After 13 years of digging, the light at the end of that tunnel is coming very quickly.
