Yesterday I got one of the first Carrick On Shannon [Co Leitrim] trains since the floods! At times it is close to a 45 degree angle and water on both sides of the train. I was a little afraid we would topple into the Shannon. The wifi is still working though which is great…

A 45 degree angle you say
Jesus was on that train
He’s abandoned the bike then.
It’s called camber. It’s so you don’t spill your tea going around a bend at higher speeds.
The train is running slower around the flood, so therefore you notice the tilt. It was always there.
Is the camber really that pronounced? Asking.
Who cares? The WiFi was working, so everything’s cool.
The correct term is cant – not camber – when dealing with railways.
Pedant out…
Ireland’s super slow Mullet train.
In Ireland we simply put the train on the water. those lads who went to the bother of digging a tunnel under the water in Britain and France must feel like silly Billys
…you’re not friends/a relative of Claire Gorrman are you?!
Next you’ll be comparing public transport to Magaluf’s!
45 degrees, me arse. It’s about 10, if that.
