I have to say I agree with you Derek, I thought it was funny too. Not the most sophisticated of humour OK, but funny nonetheless.

And I don't want to sound like an arsehole here, but speaking as someone who has little knowledge and even less interest in railway technology above joe punter, perhaps she might have a point? Anyway, maybe not for discussion here.
