Potpourri #1076

Time to catch up with some YouTube items.  As usual Jago Hazzard provides some of the most interesting material available.  Did you know that there was a 1943 plan to demolish London’s stations?  (Not by the Luftwaffe this time!)

A couple of Tube oddities…

And one from above ground…

End of an era.  The Class 313’s were the oldest trains on British railways (apart from odds and ends.)

And now the future… Whatever one thinks of HS2, it’s an impressive piece of engineering.

Fancy an Australian High Speed Train?  There are some interesting prototypes in the antipodes.

How about a model of the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch miniature main line?

And an unusual accident.  It would have been amusing if it wasn’t for the serious injuries.
