For work of course.

I thought this one might be fun:

I still remember the disappointment one Christmas of getting a Hornby train set instead of a Scalextric.

Tried to spice it up by building some inclines to see how quickly the motor would burn out.

And you'll need a couple of depressed looking human figures you can throw in front of the train to cause a delay.

When I was about seven, I wanted a train set and went on about it for almost a year.

Imagine my disappointment when i got a CLOCKWORK one with a circular track.

If i'd got my hands on that Santa bastard, I'd have kicked his **** in

Get a Mini Scalextric track, much more exciting that just trundling around an oval of track, and at least you can have a race with someone.

That reminds me of yesterday's story on Jeremy Clarkson

Jeremy Clarkson: 'execute' public sector workers, says BBC Top Gear host - Telegraph

The veteran television presenter and newspaper columnist, whose show is broadcast on BBC Two, also complained about being delayed by people throwing themselves in front of trains.

Sadly, the project in question is concerned with controlling a level crossing rather than a pelican crossing.

Ho hum.

A level crossing, eh? Then you obviously need both rail and road, erm, for realism, of course.

I once tried that with a hornby and scalextric to recreate the end of Dirty Mary Crazy Larry (1974) - IMDb.

It was a stalemate with everything broken.
