Description

Canada’s First Railway Tunnel was completed in 1860 for the Brockville and Ottawa Railway and later owned by the Canadian Pacific Railway until being acquired by the City of Brockville in 1983. The Tunnel is a remarkable example of Canada’s pre-Confederation industrial heritage and is open to the public. Key features of the Tunnel are a new paved concrete floor, state-of-the-art energy efficient lighting and a music soundtrack to help bring history to the present.
