Steorn and Trains

Remember Steorn? According to engadget, they're supposed to have an update on their delightful plans for free energy and such.. Last weekend we took the train to Kilkenny to soak up some rays. It seems they do things differently there. Anyway, me being the lanky lad that I am opted to take the train instead of the bus. Well, that worked out ok one way but the powers that be (ie. lazy IE staff) declined to inform us that on the journey back we'd be transferring to a bus. This is not out of the ordinary for our heroic national train company, but what does annoy me is the fact that had I known this we could have taken the bus right from the start and saved a lot of time and money! Needless to say the American tourists next to us weren't impressed. And coming recently after the news of France's TGV beating some speed record for trains, it got me thinking... What we need in Ireland is some sort of super train...a super...nuclear powered train.. 1970's awesomeness
