One of them is a hugely expensive and ridiculous waste of space and should be got rid of, to avoid any further loss to the taxpayer...

I can't really contribute to this thread for our jokes of this type for obvious reasons cannot be translated and remain jokes.

What's the difference between a train and a woman's hand?
A train moves in a hard way over the switches.

(I told you it doesn't work.)

But I've got a question.
We start with "What's the difference between..."
All your jokes remain jokes without the "I say, I say, I say..." opening. So what's the significance or meaning of that opening?

I'd be interested to know what makes it funny in German though, even if the joke would not be funny itself in English. Presumably the word for 'switches' in German has some other meaning?
