    Admittedly this is mostly a symbolic thing to do, since all tunnels look alike. Nevertheless, the channel tunnel between Calais and Dover, connecting France to Great Britain, is a very impressive engineering feat, and that makes it worth visiting.

    The railway museum in Utrecht is the museum of the Dutch Railways (NS, which originally stood for Nederlandse Spoorwegen). The museum is an old railway station, and there are still special museum trains that connect from Utrecht Central station to the museum. Official website, see on: Google maps OpenStreetMap
