Workers rescued from Chinese tunnel after eight day ordeal

摘要

Three Chinese railway workers who were trapped in a collapsed tunnel for more than a week were pulled to safety, local media revealed last month. Around 400 rescue workers were called to the scene of the collapse to free the men. About 40m of the 2,625m Hongling Tunnel, an under-construction section of the Hukun Railway, collapsed in Xinhua County, Hunan, on 30 June.
