Default Gotthard Base Tunnel

Does the opening of the Gotthard Base Tunnel mean the closure
of the present (apparently spectacular) rail route through the
Alps?

A 57-km ride through a hole in the ground doesn't appeal very
much.

How much longer will the old line be open for, if it's going
to be superseded?
