    I'm pretty sure my hazy memory recalls one of those when the girlfriends parents had gone out. That was a lot of years ago....

    Certainly not. 200 year old English oak can take a fair bit. Cleaned it once or twice but.

    Bet your propensity has never been this monumental, Ron.

    Spain'''s rail head resigns over bungled train orders resulting in trains too wide for tunnels - ABC News

    The bloke who issued that order number will have a red face for a while.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    The new NSW intercity trains, if I remember correctly, required changes to track alignment in the Blue Mountains and, yes, widening of some tunnels. And if I remember rightly, were imported from Spain.

    Didn't they build the rail tunnel here and didn't order enough trains?

    And the trains that were ordered,came from somewhere overseas and didn't comply in many areas,particularly WH&S,but they were cheap.

    Eventually the next Govt spent millions of $ modifying them,and trying to sort the issues.
