This linked site is a 360 degree photographic view of the part of the construction of the Gotthard Base Tunnel under the Alps.  An interesting view of part of this massive railroad tunnel project:

This following linked site is a history, and its current state: 

"The Project"  [The Gotthard and Ceneri Base Tunnels]. Is an interesting read.
