Creating A Tunnel Loft (RW-TS2014)

Is there, anywhere, a simple tutorial as to how to create a lofted item using 3D Canvas (I'm still on the old version). I've scoured all the usual places and can't see one. I want to create a concrete lined bore, single and double track to European loading gauge as to the best of my knowledge none of the default or DLC routes in RW have such a beast.
The only other option I have is to create as a solid object (perhaps using the bridge/arch function) as @250m sections and align this to the track as I go.

If you can get me some textures and images of what you are after along with a few dimensions Vern I would be happy to have a go in Blender. I have made lofts before in blender so I know I can do it. I believe there is a special tunnel shader as well. Would have to investigate that.

That is actually proving harder than I thought!
I may take a look at what DTG did with the Cascade Tunnel on Stevens Pass as that is a relatively modern structure.
Edit, yes that worked - the tunnel loft from Marias/Stevens is wide enough to enclose a double track with clearance for the OLE.

In the end, I found what I was looking for in the Kent High Speed assets.
