There was so much negative thinking in your response. If everything
proposed was dealt with your way nothing would ever move forward. It was
that type of thinking that leads to the ''we don't want air brakes
because we've already got vacuum brakes'', ''we've already got paraffin
tail lamps what do we need electric lamps for'' and ''BedPan and
Blackfriars work perfectly well what do we need Thameslink for''
brigade. We'd still be running unbraked open trucks with men waving red
flags in front of them.


Which reminds me, what happened to Henry Law?
