h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Very readable and interesting entry.

Only a couple of comments:
- You need to explain the phrase 'Pacific'
- After going to great lengths to explain the correct terminology, you later confuse matters by stating "By 1969 Flying Scotsman was the only steam train running on the main line..."
- Oh, and I'm also dubious about the Waterman connection. Was he really co-owner in 1973?

I can actually remember travelling behind 4472 during its stint on the newly-launched Torbay Steam Railway (as it then was) back in about 1974, when I was 3 years old!

Ah, thanks Parrferris. The Pacific Bit's going, I'll probably put it into the first section. The Pete Waterman bit has been confirmed earlier in this conversation I think. It wasn't actually in the original entry.

Are you happy with this now?

I am if no-one's got anything else to add. I think it's perfect.

hmm, let me think.

There's...

Nah, I think it's pretty shiny too.

I've got no problems with it

I like it too

I used to have The Duchess of Montrose, back in the days of 3 rail Hornby 'oo' wish I'd kept it.
