Exploiting Overexposure

Curzon Street Tunnel is on the Digbeth Branch Canal, completed in 1799.

 

The Grade II listed structure is 161 yards long and carries the Birmingham to London railway across the canal. The older brick tunnel was constructed at the same time as Curzon Street station in 1838 and lengthened later when the line was extended into New Street station, opened in 1854.
