At least you didn't drive a rental car off the end of a loading ramp in a
Los Angeles railway yard when you were on holiday. A certain Central driver
(who was at Enfield when I was there) went on a holiday to the US a few
years ago and produced pictures of his rental car bent in the middle after
driving it off the high end of a concrete loading onto some rails when
following a train through the yard! 8-)

It just proves what they say - Only in America - even when it's an
Australian that does it! (Hello DL, if you read this newsgroup!)

Regards,

Craig.
