Construction of the St Gotthard Tunnel beneath the Alps, 1880
Construction of the St Gotthard Tunnel beneath the Alps, 1880. The tunnel was built to link Italy and Switzerland by rail. Workmen from the two ends of the 9 1/4 mile-long tunnel broke through the last piece of rock and met to complete the tunnel on 29 February 1880 and the first works train passed through tunnel on 2 March 1880. This view of the Swiss end of the tunnel during construction shows workmen man-handling wagons used to remove debris
