I've just been watching the story of that guy who drove a shunter up and down for 40 minutes. Got it started with a spanner, apparently knew what he was doing. He got 200 hours "community service" which as far as I am concerned he can spend with me watching railway videos.

PMSL, it's great to be British isn't it ? (I'm Scottish so I qualify - just)

No, but I know how to stop one
I remember reading once about a chap who got caught pretending to be a ticket inspector on the trains. Had all the genuine uniform, everything. Obviuosly a nutter. The only thing that got passengers suspicious was that he behaved too polite and courteous. True story that.

Trains, this bears repetition:

William: Wait a minute, 'ere! You can't fool me about with all that clever talk, mate. You gotta pay for the ticket. Nah, where did you get on?
Seagoon: Curse, the game's up. Well now, er... what was that last station?
William: Fun Junction.
Seagoon: That's it! That's where I got on!
William: But we didn't stop there!
Seagoon: Do you think it was easy?
William: Look, where are you going to?
Seagoon: The next station.
William: Right, that'll be 18 shillings and thrupence.
Seagoon: Right, there we are.
William: Thank you.
Seagoon: Fool. Ha, ha. Little does he know that the real fare is not 18 and thrupence but 32 pounds, six shillings.
William: Little does he know that I'm nothing to do with the railway at all.
whiffey, wear a hat next time you`re out in the sun
Oh! Elvis you crack me up!!

Talk about liberated man........

wound up or what?
I used to drive an orange Nuffield tractor and a John Deere Combine harvester, well, i was allowed to turn it around once in a big open space, but I also drove a grey fergie and it was brilliant, not like a train of course, but different to a car.
whiffey my dear lady, have u been on the sauce again?
Whiffey you should know that from an early age in Scotland we are taught to hotwire any vehicle the noo lol
sandra!! xx
i can't drive a diesel shunter btw, i don't even know what one is, but i can drive a farm special and prefer to do so with the spike attachment
No problem ... easier to drive than most cars
No, I can't, but I'd like a go.

Should be easier than a car - there's no steering to worry about.

I thought it was a great story.

I am back!!!!!!!!!!!Thought I would post here so only you would know!HE HE HE HE!!!!!!!!!
