Use of a Mirror in Tunnel

Use of a small mirror in tunnel to give the appearance that the tunnel is short and only curves a little, hiding the fact that the track really makes a sharp 9 3/4" curve for almost 180 degrees into a hidden stretch inside the mountain. While hard to see in the photo, there's a fake track section that runs to the mirror giving the appearance that the tracks are continuous in that direction.
