Spanning 3,400 miles, the tunnel would be the most ambitious infrastructure project ever undertaken. The difficulties of building an underground rail tunnel all the way from London to New York might seem insurmountable, yet plans to actually construct such a tunnel are genuinely being considered, with those behind the idea estimating that it could cost somewhere in the region of $20 trillion.
Not only would the tunnel be the longest ever built by a huge margin at 3,400 miles long, but it would also make incredibly fast trans-Atlantic travel a reality, with trips between New York and London taking a mere 54 minutes to complete.
This remarkably short travel time would be achieved by creating a vacuum within the tunnel and using pressurized vehicles that could theoretically reach speeds of up to 3,000mph.

One 8th century goat humper we the home made explosives would destroy it as soon as its finished.
even if it only cost 1/100th of that I wouldn’t be in support of it. Freaking illegals from Europe would flood in
When I worked in San Francisco, I used to commute on a railway that went through an underwater tunnel under the bay. In the back of my mind was the concern that if there was an earthquake, I would not make it out alive. I can’t imagine going from New York to London underwater.
People will not risk some technical accident causing them to be stuck in the middle of a 3,400 mile tunnel deep underground. All the passengers will get massive situation induced claustrophia.
What could possibly go wrong?
They are already coming up through Mexico.
