Absolutely Steve, I was just waving my machismo stick.
Very big trains may be OK in big open countries, but it just wouldn't work here on our crowded isle. I see drivers and pedestrians getting irate when they have to wait for 20 wagon intermodals trundling over crossings at a sedate 30 mph. If we ran 200 vehicle consisits they'd probably attack them.
As you say, we don't need them thar big trains here!
