The world’s longest land tunnel, through the Alps, opened yesterday. The 35km (21mile) Loetschberg tunnel took eight years to build and cost about 4.3 billion Swiss francs (£1.7 billion). High-speed trains from Germany, France and Italy will get skiers to Swiss ski resorts more quickly.
President Bush immediately announced he saw a light at the end of it and he would stand down as the Swiss stood up.
