The Severn Tunnel (Welsh: Twnnel Hafren) is a railway tunnel in the United Kingdom, linking South Gloucestershire in the west of England to Monmouthshire in south Wales under the estuary of the River Severn. It was constructed by the Great Western Railway (GWR) between 1873 and 1886 for the purpose of dramatically shortening the journey times of their trains, passenger and freight alike, between South Wales and Western England. It has often been regarded as the crowning achievement of GWR's chief engineer Sir John Hawkshaw.

rdfs:comment	Der Severn Tunnel (wal.: Twnnel Hafren) ist ein zweigleisiger Eisenbahntunnel an der South Wales Main Line unter der Mündung des Flusses Severn. Er verbindet South Gloucestershire im Westen Englands mit Monmouthshire in Südwales. Gebaut wurde er von 1873 bis 1886 durch die Great Western Railway. Seine Länge beträgt insgesamt 7008 m, davon befinden sich 3620 m unter der Flussmündung. Bei seiner Eröffnung war er der längste Eisenbahntunnel Großbritanniens und ist heute der drittlängste nach den zwei Londoner Tunnels der High Speed 1 mit 10 bzw. 7,5 km Länge.

(en) De Severntunnel (Welsh: Twnnel Hafren) is een spoorwegtunnel in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, die South Gloucestershire in het westen van Engeland verbindt met Monmouthshire in het zuiden van Wales onder de monding van de rivier de Severn. De eerste passagierstrein reed op 1 december 1886 door de Severntunnel, bijna 14 jaar na het begin van de werkzaamheden. Na de opening vormde de Severntunnel al snel een belangrijk onderdeel van de hoofdspoorlijn tussen Zuid-Engeland en Zuid-Wales. De GWR exploiteerde onder meer tientallen jaren een autoshuttletrein door de tunnel. (nl)
