Experiences

1. BROCKVILLE RAILWAY TUNNEL Built in 1860, Canada’s first Rail Tunnel was used to connect the waterfront by rail for 110 years. Now it has a comfortable walking surface and an incredible sound and light show for the entire length of the half kilometer (1753’) tunnel. Water seeping through the walls has created beautiful formations of white calcite and yellow dolomite, and the stalactites grow about 1 mm (.04”) per year. Photo courtesy George Fischer.
