THE EUROTUNNEL

In 1957,an engineering company started studying the possibility to join Britain and

France through a tunnel under the sea. It would have two trains for passengers as

well as a small service train. In 1973 the ideas went into action and the hard work

began. A short time later, they were stopped because there wasn't enough money

to complete the project.

In 1984, several companies showed their ideas to re-start the project: two variations

of railway, a road ard a big bridge over the English Channel. The chosen project

was the railway solution that was very similar to the one presented back in 1973.

This time with help from both the British and French, a private company began the

construction.

On January 20th 1985, the company TransMancheUnk(TML) said that a long tunnel

would be constructed. They chose a route from Folkestone in England to Calais in

France. This wasn't the shortest possible way and the company needed to work

harder than 13 years before.

It took sevenyears to complete the Eurotunneland about 13,000 people worked on it.

The two ends of the smallestplatform met on December1st 1990and lots of journalists

and photographers went to the opening ceremony. Later, in 1991 the two long trains

met. The hard work continued and three years later the project was completed.
