Getting Somewhere

Ok, at the risk of being branded a weirdo I'm going to go ahead with this post. For weeks now I have been noticing how the trains in Brisbane (Aus) when they take off from a station or break while entering one make a sound EXACTLY like the opening note of Bold as Brass - you know that long sorta wail. Normally I wouldn't post such an obscure thing like this on the forum but EVERY time i hear it at the staion I have to stop myself from launching into the "dooo do do dah dah dah" part. I'm afraid one day I will!. Anyway, any fellow Brisbanites noticed this phenomenon or am I going mad!?

Yep that's true PC. Just when they're putting on the speed and leaving the station, how very perceptive of you. Smiler
