Описание к видео Glenfield Tunnel - The longest Railway Tunnel in 1832

Join me as I finally get to walk through Glenfield Tunnel on the Leicester and Swannington Railway. The longest railway tunnel in the world when it opened in 1832 this wonder of engineering was designed by none other than George Stephenson and the construction was over looked by his son Robert. This really is a wonder of engineering!

The tunnel is owned by Leicestershire CC and tours are conducted by the Leicestershire Industrial Heritage Trust. If you are interested in a tour then contact them via their website www.lihs.org.uk.
