What do you thing of the trains in Hong Kong? They're designed how the

Tangara should have been, with stainless steel completely non-padded

seats. (at least they were the last time I looked) The Tangaras aren't

that old, but they look half hacked already because of a general lack of

respect. The way to fix the hoons that scribble all over everything is

to make everything stark stainless steel, hence vandal-proof.



Regards, Alan.
