Eurotunnel
Anglo-French rail company
Eurotunnel is the company that operates the Channel Tunnel, the undersea rail link connecting England and France beneath the English Channel.
The name often refers to the tunnel itself or to the shuttle service that carries vehicles between Folkestone and Calais: We took the Eurotunnel across to France.
The journey takes about 35 minutes.
