| 14.07.2006 16:53 | Nick Johnson: | thats pretty unlikely - at the time of BR's privatisation there was no channel tunnel and it was very rare for wagons like this to be transported across the channel by boat! | |
| 15.07.2006 10:16 | Nick Johnson: | on my recent belgium trip I passed a long line of cargo trucks marked with italian markings, I guess they send normal cargo through the chunnel frequently as well as loading up actual channel tunnel trains with trucks on the flatbeds. | |
