Do you really know Calgary #2

[speedog]

So onto another one - how about a tunnel in Calgary that people can drive their vehicles through.

Most definitely on private property, I've been through it with my vehicles although not in recent years - it's still there and very much operational, drove up to it's entrance within the last month.

Pretty sure that there's at least one quite active Beyonder who'll now where this is - would be a neat place for a photo shoot.

The one at the Stampede Grounds that goes under the Race Track?

[speedog]

Nope, although that one is private I am pretty much sure you just can't drive up to the Stampede Park one and drive through.

The one I'm speaking of is quite accessible from a public road - I've never seen a security person in the area controlling access even though it is signed as private property.

Google Maps camera car has been right up to it - pics are on Google Maps.

whats the address?
*edit*
lol oh nevermind its a game!
ahaha

[speedog]

What would be cool is a Beyonder posting up a pic of their vehicle going into one end of this tunnel and another pic at the other end of the tunnel.

The only one that comes to mind is the one at the CP Alyth yard.....

edit: lol should have read the other posters first

[speedog]

01RedDX is right - now I wonder how many Beyonders have been through that tunnel.

Access right now might be difficult due to the current CPR labour situation.

So where does the other end come out?
Here?

[shakalaka]

Oh wow, I've never been, I really want to now though. But you say it's private property?

[speedog]

In the middle of the CPR Alyth yard - entrance can be seen near the top center at this link - other end is just below the dark grey rail car.

CPR property - see Google Maps camera car pic here.

Does put you in the middle of the yards though.

I assume the point of this is just to cross under those tracks?

[nzwasp]

The last time I drove through it was last year and I'm pretty sure theres a train track when you drive down that ramp. Atleast from what I remember.

On the south side entrance/exit, there is a set of tracks that you have to cross.
