While doing some research on another subject, I came across the fact that Milano hosted a rather major World Expo in 1906. (Its opening stole the thunder from the Intercalated games happening in Athens at the same time.)  It celebrated the opening of the Simplon Tunnel.  120 years later, they have managed to tack on a Winter Games.
