Play Nice Planes, Trains & Automobiles

[Mister B]

The newest Chinese bullet trains run Japan pretty close - but they don't have that Japanese 'experience' with them for mine. Compared to the wonders of the XPT however, well they pale into insignificance

People can have their fancy bullet trains. Nothing, and I mean nothing in the world compares to the experience of a 10 hour XPT trip back to Melbourne, sitting behind a Collingwood Cheer squad member, the morning after a 1 point prelim final win against them which you discuss at length with the random swans supporter next to you.

Hahaha I'm surprised the train carriages arrived in one piece after that haha!

The knob head ended up walking up to a sleeper carriage his mate had and didn't see him for a good 6 hours.

I recall very fondly your hourly updates as you travelled back home - the Magpie cheer squads relationship dramas were a favourite.

They've probably had 3 inbred kids and two marriages and a divorce by now.

 

[The Blue Max]

Travelled on the TGV from Milan to France and the Eurostar from London to Paris.

The TGV was a nicer fitout - until some skinny African bloke hurtled down the carriage and locked himself in the dunny.

2 Minutes later some Pom starts bashing in the door yelling ‘give me back my passport!’

The guard turned up, opened the door, searched him, no passport - he’d flushed it!

Unscheduled stop at the border, nek minit about 10 Africans are running from the train with the Carabiniere in hot pursuit.

Immigration Euro style.
