Rail Forums Drinking/Bingo Game

[tbtc]

I was rightly picked up by Greenback on a recent thread for my habit of dismissing the need for every town/village/station to have a direct link to London.

Fair enough, I thought, I do mention this a bit

...but it got me thinking, what habits do everyone else have? For example, there's one poster who likes to mention driverless cars (on various threads), there's one poster who mentions Droitwich on various threads (naming no names)...

So, if you were doing a Rail Forums Drinking Game (or Bingo, for the under eighteens), what things would you have on your "card"?

(meant in a light hearted way)

Hold on a second; what about those of us who are 18+ but don't drink?

A light-hearted response to a light-hearted question

Seriously though, I think mine might be fantasy. Or Pokémon. (Which might be a problem in my Pokémon thread.)

FGW HST's seem to crop up rather a lot for me.

As does Didcot Parkway.

What about 150128?

Don't mention that blasted thing Scott, I haven't seen it for over a week, now I bet it's at EXD this evening!

...shall I say the name then??

(Don't worry, I've quietened down) :roll:

Weston-super_mare, although I haven't mentioned it so much lately.

Lybster Omnibus Syndrome will mean something to a certain "bus route" specialist on a certain Transport Quiz...

Urgh. Horrid place.

Dead last on my list of places I like to visit.

The evils of cars that are owned and driven by private individuals and how they should be banned so driverless cars will be the transport of tomorrow :roll:

*2 shots*

North wales coast has major news story - cow on the line again. Wrexham and Shropshire were killed by the evils of ATW and VT.

*14 shots*


(Edit: bollocks, not my card).

Okay, mine would definitely be ; HSTs are crap, so are LHCS of any derivative, its only a proper train if theres a motor of some description under the floor.

*shots*

How many HS2 hater slots?

 

[LE Greys]

Is this as in Boycott Bingo? (Uncovered pitches, ...could have hit that with a stick of rhubarb, etc)

With me:
Any way of suggesting that the ECML is the greatest line in the world and should remain so
Whinging about the WCML/HS2/anywhere west of the Pennines getting all the good stuff
Talking about how all Desiros are crap
Suggesting that Voyagers are better than Desiros
Complaining that everything was much better in the past and is getting worse
Saying that the EU is evil

Disagree - Great Western is the greatest!

Whinging about the WCML/HS2/anywhere west of the Pennines getting all the good stuff

Disagree - Snow Hill passengers got lumbered with 172s. I'd happily settle for a pacer!

Talking about how all Desiros are crapl

Disagree - 172s are

Suggesting that Voyagers are better than Desirosl

They're both excellent - although a Pacer wins hands down

Saying that the EU is evil

Agree!

Other than being a bit grumpy at times, I'm not sure what I could put for this.
