Shocked ... I felt sure that this was it ... maybe!:lol:

Answer - nothing! No train, no tunnel...

There *were* clues!

1 - Original GPR and geophysics images...hilarious! Details of tank barrels, hatches etc, etc.. Anyone that knows ground radar and the likes, can tell you that picking up such details, inside of a *tunnel*? No chance!

2 - LIDAR - no evidence of earthworks, backfilling of tunnel entrances...nothing

3 - Academic and *actual* geophysical experts investigations, conclusion: 'there's nothing there'

4 - Despite apparently knowing *exact* entry points, having plotted the full course of tunnel through their survey works etc...they dig in 3-4 different places!

Fair play for having managed to get gullible souls to fund all the moving around of dirt though! :lol:

Have you ever seen any of those Forbidden History programs with Jamie Theakston. Usually good for a laugh although I wish they would question the beliefs and "proofs" a bit more rigorously. There was one guy trying to prove that King Arthur was based in the Welsh Marches (which might be a possibility). Extremely dodgy linguistic "proofs". Then he showed a ground penetrating radar picture of a hillock. The feature he said could be King Arthur's grave was 1 pixel across and 2 long.

One should remember that whilst John Reith placed a great emphasis on 'inform and educate' since his demise the BBC has made great strides in moving the emphasis to 'entertainment'. Having watched this programme I know which catagory I would put it in.

Must be a different tunnel that has the strategic steam reserve in it then!
