South Yorkshireman - Other Named Trains

Famous quotes containing the words named and/or trains:

“The punters know that the horse named Morality rarely gets past the post, whereas the nag named Self-Interest always runs a good race.”
—Gough Whitlam (b. 1916)

“The complaint ... about modern steel furniture, modern glass houses, modern red bars and modern streamlined trains and cars is that all these objets modernes, while adequate and amusing in themselves, tend to make the people who use them look dated. It is an honest criticism. The human race has done nothing much about changing its own appearance to conform to the form and texture of its appurtenances.”
—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
