<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ValpoBeginner, post: 2899516, member: 77066&quot;]I saw something on TV about the design of the British Railway systems and the show stated that, If todays Engineers were designing the railways according to Todays efficiency standards, that it would be built with exactly the same routes as it was when they were first built. All of the considerations involved in this &quot;then and now&quot;&nbsp; assessment were: fuel efficiency, timely arrivals, civic planning possibilities, future urban expansion, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>Truly a marvel and worthy of my admiration. I had to agree with the shows experts after the evidence they presented....ie..&nbsp; Computer Calculations of route possibilities, weight limits, topography, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was the center of the world&#039;s talent pool at the time and strangely politics did not get in the way of this time tested project!</p><p><br /></p><p>Did anyone else see it, Id love to see it again?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
