Fox News
Switzerland will keep the Gotthard rail tunnel closed through next September after damage sustained during an August derailment proved worse than anticipated.
"The rail tracks need to be entirely replaced over 4.2 miles. The work will take much more time than anticipated," SBB said. The cost of the repairs is expected to be 100 million to 130 million Swiss francs (about $110 million to $140 million).
Limited passenger and cargo train traffic through the tunnel is continuing. Previously, SBB said repair work would continue through the end of this year.
