For a defintive answer one would have to ask BW but (having been 
through the tunnel) I can state with certainty that it has many yards 
of unfinished sides of bare rock and is nothing like the brick (or 
other material lined) tunnels we see elsewhere and would very 
definitely not be GRP friendly. The tunnel is also so narrow that to 
put rubbing boards in would seriously reduce the navigable width.
Allowing that the chances of incident with petrol engines is slight I 
would still prefer not to be in there at the same time as several 
gallons of petrol.

it is one of the best ventilated tunnels on the system. CKP
