Yes, and the Yank motorists are NOT impressed by them monsters that block level crossings for an eternity.
Big is not always better.
Here we used to operate single engine loads over the Blue Mountains.
Every blink of the eye, a train would zoom past.
Being able to fit amongst the plethora of interurbans and not delay nada.
Fit into any siding to permit crosses and run-throughs.
Ran like clockwork.
But, then we got the corporate disease, big and fewer is better.
Bring back them good ole days.
Steve.
