claim to highest railway tunnel in Asia in question

edit

I added a citation needed qualifier here, but mostly because I think the claim that this tunnel is the highest broad gauge railway tunnel in Asia might not even be true. This comes from the "Tourism of Koraput" website, which also claims it is second highest in the world. Doesn't say how high it is. In October 2002, a 4905 meter railway tunnel was completed in Tibet, and the web article on that claimed it was the highest in the world (not just Asia). I don't know if the qualifier "broad guage" here is relevant to the issue, but if it is, maybe it shouldn't be. If I get time I may try to find a reference book on tunnels.

Claim that Tunnel was Built 10 Years Ago

edit

Does Wikipedia have a policy on dating items (so need to update). It looks like the comment that the tunnel was built 10 years ago in this article was put in in 2005 and so is now outdated. Better to say, built in 1995, so it never has to be updated, or it has to be updated every year (now should either be 12 or 13 years ago. Jlawniczak (talk) 20:37, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
