Contest 218: Rail conversion
Snapped this at my local rail station yesterday. Looking at the recessed rails, it struck me how it would make a good canal. Of course, if we converted this line from trains to boats, we'd need to make quite a lot of other changes too... Feel up to the challenge? High res is here.  |

With the line flooded, there was only one way to get to work.  |

A rather satisfying fantasy this one - "We apologise for the delay to the 5.15 from Brighton. This is due to the wrong sort of ducks on the line"

I just realised that I probably should have taken all those overhead wires out - oh well perhaps they ran out of money. _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |
