Twentieth Century Fox sure is scraping the barrel for television ideas.

No problem.

What's '4th' rail? :fist: Cheers n thanks, Bazza The London Underground has 630V DC electrification via an additional two rails. The 'third rail' in this case is belongside the track and is energised at +420 V DC. The 'fourth rail' is inbetween the tracks and is energised at -210 V DC, thus adding ...

So you would have found them on the S&D, particularly since IIRC the S&D is being modelled in the 50s/60s. Hello, There weren't any diesel shunters allocated to the ...

-A lucky hunting day for Prince Philip.

That route has got dozens of reasons now why I wouldn't buy it, and it was a route I was considering buying. Not least the liveries, the poor scenery, and the incredibly ugly website.
