With yet another bridge bash happening today on the line, this has made me wonder a few questions.
Okay so why is it that you still try and force your vehicle underneath a railway bridge? You know your vechicle is too tall, yet you think that the bridge will automaticly grow in size when you go underneath it. Oh yeah screw the other railway users that will get delays because of your incompetent driving, or the fact that the railway tracks above could get misplaced causing a derailment.
Do you see those black/yellow markings? Yes that meens its a low bridge, funny that isnt it! Oh and what about that red triangle sign with a height measurement in it?
That means if your vehicle is above or close to those measurements it is NOT GOING TO FIT THROUGH so dont bother attempting it OKAY!
But we all know they dont apply to you do they, because your special arnt you. Thats why you continue to go through the same bridge time in, time out and still get stuck everytime.

It’s called deregulation (remember the thing that screwed up the railways?). Any muppet with half a brain-cell can now drive a “goods vehicle” (previously rightly called “heavy goods vehicle”) of a weight capable of killing the occupants of 5 cars it comes across whilst driving too fast up the back end of a queue. To ease this, the speed limits have also been increased for such vehicles, which can now travel at 70mph in the outside lane of a motorway. Hence the train is now overcrowded, as the motorways are closed due to ‘accidents’. Don’t expect them to be capable of calculating that their vehicle is too high for the low bridge they are about o take out of action, in order to deliver the one measly parcel they are couriering across the country.
