La cause essentielle de limitation de la capacité du tunnel sous la Manche est l'espacement minimum en temps séparant deux trains. Cet espacement minimum détermine le nombre maximum de trains pouvant transiter par heure dans le tunnel. Des études effectuées sur l'échauffement du tunnel consécutif au passage des trains montrent qu'en l'absence d'un système de réfrigération, il n'est pas exclu qu'il soit nécessaire de limiter le nombre de trains en dessous de la capacité limite découlant du critère d'espacement minimum, ceci afin de limiter l'élévation de température. 1, record 5, French, - capacit%C3%A9%20limite

When sea level rises with the incoming tide to the point where it is higher than the river level upstream from the rock shelf, the seawater forces its way upstream against the flow of the river and through the narrow point in the channel. The resulting rapids, whirlpools and eddies create the impression that the falls have actually reversed. 2, record 6, English, - reversing%20waterfall

The number of trains that can enter Manhattan directly is limited by the capacity of the tunnels under the Hudson River.... Construction of an additional under-river tunnel would be extremely expensive and take years, perhaps decades, to complete. It is not even on the drawing boards at this time.
