You missed the review of the RTR Claughton then?

According to Einstein, gravity works by an object collapsing the space and time around it. So the length of the inclined railway is less than it would be if it were flat!

Harrogate and District has painted its new Wright Gemini double decker buses mostly black. God knows why!

And not in your hand?

I thought this was achieved years ago.

Sacrilege! There's only a handful of Gemini's on test in the West Midlands so I haven't seen one in the flesh yet. The station-hospital route uses a Daimler-Benz bendibus which I can't wait to see in model form. The hospital is three miles outside of town and the road is full of potholes so by the time the passengers get out they're battered and bruised and violently sea-sick. A friend who lives near the hospital can't see the funny side of this :o)

At least they're better than the pink Gemini that was running around London for a while.

The reason that atmospheric railways were discontinued was that rats ate the leather flap valve sealing the pipe, they found the the leather to be delicious abit like a ratty macdonalds but with more flavour.....Brunel loved the Atmospherics :) Beowulf
