TUNNEL RACING ( THE MERSEY TUNNEL )

By gentry3951
Taken on the lower level of the Mersey Tunnel under the main road. This part of the tunnel was meant for trains to run through the tunnel, but the Ferry Companies wouldn't allow it.
The other versions are just to show you pictures inside the Mersey Tunnel Control tower and the Ventilation Tower.
In 2012 it was used for a chase scene in Fast & Furious 6 and, in March 2018, the tunnel was used for the filming of Yesterday, directed by Danny Boyle.
There’s a closed Mersey Tunnel – the Rendel Street branch in the Birkenhead tunnel was shut in 1965 but survives as an emergency route and film set.

Perhaps the last place I would expect to meet a V12 Lagonda!
