Glad tidings from Network Rail!
According to a press release from the Death Star (nee Black Tower) the West Coast Project is completed!
Amidst a tide of trumpet blasts a euphoric Iain Coucher proclaimed:
"Network Rail has delivered West Coast on the day we said we would."
Meanwhile the industry said:
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandiain, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
