    So, apparently the ‘fuel at the pumps’ shortages are forcing many people back onto public transport.

    (Right, that’s that done.)

    Back on Topic . . .  Here’s a video of the ’15 Most Amazing Railway Tracks in the World’:

    And the words to The Little Steam Engine song from Trumpton, which will now be running through your brain for the rest of the day.  🙂

    The Little Steam Engine

    Time flies by when I’m the driver of a train
    And I ride on the footplate there and back again
    Under bridges over bridges to our destination
    Puffing through the countryside there’s so much to be seen.
    Passengers waving as we steam through a station.
    Stoke up fireman for the signal is at green.

    Time flies by when I’m the driver of a train
    And I ride on the footplate there and back again
    In the cutting, through the tunnel,
    Rushing clanking on the track.
    Wheezing pistons, smoking funnels,
    Turning wheels go clickety clack.

    Time flies by when I’m the driver of a train
    And I ride on the footplate there and back again.
