My grandfather thought the 'whoosh'[1] of a steam locomotive's cylinders was wonderful, and thought the diesel and electric locomotives that replaced them were 'soulless'. But look at the filth they created! [2] (The shafts of light show how smokey it is in there). His hobby was travelling round the country to see old steam trains running on preserved/heritage railways. That's fine, and fans of ICE cars will probably be able to watch races, drive on private roads/racetracks etc. [1] https://youtu.be/UwfM8SNoMtk?t=448 [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:St_Pancras_2_railway_stat... |
