Oh dear.....this is getting difficult.

Duct.."A tube,pipe or channel through which liquid is sent....

Tunnel..."An underground passageway, esp. one for trains or cars..

Culvert.."A drain or pipe that crosses under a road or railway....

Happy now? The Stink and Tinker flow along and through ducts and culverts, NOT tunnels. The scrapyard collapse was about 10 years ago, was'nt it...or has there been another one since?
