I've been spending the weekend in an area of The UK where they still point at aeroplanes...

I note that they keep up to date on the price of beer though.

(Will, we used to try similar tricks with underground locos, which to be fair were much smaller, lighter and easier to stop / start, being either electric or diesel. Peanuts in shell were seen as being a neat trick, as were hard boiled eggs. But like I say, not as impressive as your steam loco!)
