That says nothing about railroads, but everything you need to know about Britain's continuing economic decline. The sad truth is, the British bourgeoisie is *so* stupid, they can't even hack the metric system, let alone something as stupefyingly complex as proportional representation in Parliament (and don't get me started on the euro). Like Spain after the Golden Age, they may have to hit bottom somewhere in the late 21st century, for things to ever get better.
