Make your mind up.


Go on then, clever clogs. You try it!


Why not just state what the actual problem is.

If you don't understand electrolytic corrosion read up on it.

Stop playing silly games. You stated it was not possible due to it for some
chemical reason, I pointed out that its obviously done in certain cars (not to
mention aircraft) whereupon you suddenly decided it was all down to scale. So
are you going to tell us what the actual issue is or just keep blustering and
hope I get bored and give up?

Cars and aircraft spend very little time exposed to salt water spray.
Island Line trains go out to Ryde Pier Head station, where they are
exposed to salt water spray coming up from under the tracks.

You've heard of gritting lorries, right? My car spent a lot of time driving
through salty spray last winter. Far more so than the few minutes the trains
at ryde pier are subjected to and then only when the sea is rough.

Did you measure the salinity? You seem to have all the answers, so I
suppose you must have done. Do please share your data.

Oh look, Plowmans noticed another bandwagon rolling past and decided to hop
on this one until he gets kicked off into a pile of his own bull**** once
again.

I would imagine that a large amount of salt mixed with a small amount of melted
ice would give a fairly salty solution but if you want to argue the point
wait until next winter and measure it yourself then get back to me.

Ignore that, my newsreader just went a bit odd there and mixed up all the
names.

The rest still stands.

That's a "no" then, isn't it.
