Catesby Tunnel Vehicle Testing Facility

Catesby Tunnel, located in Northamptonshire, England, was a Railway tunnel that opened in May 1897. The railway line was part of the Great Central’s ‘London Extension’ with the first train running through in July 1898. The railway tunnel was in service for 68 years until its operational retirement in September 1966. Whilst sitting empty for over 5 decades, it has now reopened as a private test facility.
