G'day BW,
Crikey a bag of chips sent yer eyes spinning.
Must be all that lard they is cooked in and salt that you Poms shovel over yer chips.
HA!
I've heard that them lot north of the border where they wears kilts even deep fries their Mars bars.
Catch Points (Trap points) are generally not a facet of Mexican (ours) safe working UNLESS there be a lot of over-run distance ahead of the stick.
Them Mexicans having SPEED signalling, not Route Controlled like us cockroach country lot.
And, them Mexicans do get along on their broad gauge.
Ah but it made me appreciate the sedate progress in Tassiemania.
Max speed on the South line being 60 kph, and there weren't much of that.
Average speed was 45 kph.
Yes, the job is vastly different to the days that I enjoyed.
But, I definitely don't believe that the railway alcohol and drugs problem is anywhere near as bad as it is on our roads.
Melbourne has the record for the highest amount of Chrystal Meth abuse in the country.
They regularly tests the Melbourne sewerage treatment plants and discover the ingredients.
PEW, wouldn't want that job.
Steve.
