Description One of the many different tunnels found inside the St. Thomas Assembly Plant in Southwold, Ontario, Canada.  This particular tunnel was used in the painting process, from here the car bodies would have moved to a different tunnel with infrared heaters to quickly dry the fresh paint before moving on to the next step in the manufacturing process.  At the time of it's closure in late 2011, this plant produced only three vehicles, the Ford Crown Victoria (which was commonly used for taxis and police patrol vehicles), Mercury Grand Marquis and the Lincoln Town Car.  The final Crown Victoria to come off the assembly line at this plant was shipped to and sold in Saudi Arabia.

This place could easily be used to film a dystopian sci-fi movie. Awesome!
