From the heat of battle to a battle with heat
I see the train tracks are next for the chop. Sorry for the Flann O’Brien-type line, but I learned during the week that the rising temperatures being caused by climate change are causing havoc with British railways.
The tracks are not designed to deal with that level of heat, and are therefore expanding too far, which means in turn that they may all have to be replaced.
