Simplon North and South Tunnel portals

Simplon North and South Tunnel portals.

Faithful reproduction of the north portal of the Simplon tunnel near Brig in Switzerland and south portal near Iselle in Italy. That two-gallery railway tunnel is located between Switzerland and Italy and was the longest rock tunnel in the world until 1970. The tunnel portals can each be used with a single-track.
