Did anyone see the recent article in the Metro Newspaper showing a tomato plant growing in between the tracks, I think in the Stratford/Ilford/Romford area. It said that it was probably seeded via passing through someone who used a loo on a train and it took root. Not sure how true that is, I thought that all trains apart from old MK1 & MK2s that are only used for charter services, all had had retention tanks fitted, rather than drop onto the track which of course used to happen.

Mk3s definitely don't have retention tanks, which may well be where it has come from

Regulars in platform 4 at Swansea during the summer. Wouldn't fancy them in my sandwiches though.
