If you like tunnels and stuff, you should read about the biggest train tunnel fiasco in Swedish history. Hallands*stunneln, unforunately I don't think there's too much about it in English.
The tunnel was supposed the be finished many years ago and cost 1.5 billion SEK (6.8 SEK on 1 USD). After lowering the ground water 350 feet, poisoning ground water and streams, was not able to even drill the tunnel and all other crap they had to close it down. At that point it was WAY over budget already. Now they say they will start it up again and the cost to finish it will be 6-10 billion. FIASCO! hehe
