With a rare and beautiful ease one can now ring up a boffin, as I did the other day, and say: As a price for not opposing our Parliamentary Powers for a new marshalling yard, the Council at X demands that the bridge over X Lane shall have 16 ft. 6 in. headroom. This means steepening our gradient from 1 in 70 to 1 in 65 for half a mile on a 20-chain curve. What difference will this make to the loads of Type
2,
3and
4diesels please?
. Back comes the answer.
