Like I know in the olden days rail was the way you got around. But it hasn't been like that for ages

What? The Queen has her own train?!
That's overkill.

Why wouldn't she, Hitler had one.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Yeah but back then everyone had a train.

 

[cats_09]

Does the train go to her house. Or does she have to drive to the station?

can't remember if she has a private station, but it's more so for longer trips - more comfortable than sitting in a car, and not sure how regularly she flys now days

 

[Spazz Cat]

She also owns more real estate than any other person in the world.

Ahhh no shit? Still I don't care, I wouldn't be the Queen even if I got my own train and heaps of houses.

They use it for longer trips i believe, to the countryside type places.

She doesnt like have a Myki card and use it to go down the shops get a paper.

That would be awesome if she had her own underground station under the palace.

Thats not funny.


But I laughed

Haha imagine the queen trying to jump the turnstile cause the Myki machine isnt working

Hitler needed a train. You can't set up one of those war board things in a car. It'd be a mess.

I have always dreamed of having a home underground. That place where the teenage mutant turtles lived (original 90's movies) would have been unreal.

Lol. Yeah it'd be unreal

She actually has used a myki- im fairly certain she and phil took a ride on a tram some years back.

And they got them both a myki lol

This'll be a dumb question. But is it a steam train. Like the original train from down the generations?

Like Puffing Billy?!

I did that.... maybe 5 years ago -about a year before the accident-. Highly recommend it.

She may not have actually scanned it herself, but i definitely remember them saying that in a doco shown recently.

Melbourne is actually full of underground tunnels too. Its like a whole another city down there

Surely the train cops didn't check it?

I think the tram ride was for just a few blocks, so I think she was good.

Isnt there a whole labyrinth under Flinders st station + a whole lot of secret rooms.


I should go to one of those Melbourne Open House things they do... do they do those anymore?

wasn't that one of the big conspiracies last year and that the lockdown was something to do with the tunnels, child smuggling etc

 

[Spazz Cat]

love that movie

I liked Shredders place the best. Where the footsoldiers lived. They had skateboard ramps and stuff.
I think it was the 2nd movie.
I wanted to be one of them.

I didn't hear that one unfortunately.
