Eurotunnel P.L.C.
 PROFILE
Eurotunnel P.L.C. and French counterpart Eurotunnel S.A. make up the Eurotunnel Group, the Anglo-French company that owns and operates the Channel Tunnel and its railway system. Eurotunnel's train service carries 19 million passengers a year between Folkestone, England, and Coquelles, France, by way of the controversial subsea tunnel. The train also carries freight and vehicles. Conceived as early as 1715, the "Chunnel" was plagued by delays and budget overruns before it began limited service in 1994. Eurotunnel's wholly owned subsidiary, Eurotunnel Developments Limited, owns and manages properties in England's eastern Kent, near Folkestone. (Eurotunnel's reported sales reflect its half of the Eurotunnel Group.)
