Having retired the Warrior, Liverpool rail announce their new Advanced Passenger Carrier (APC) a vandal proof train designed for carrying away supporters.
Well it did not work in 1989 in Tiananmen Square , what makes you think it will work today?
Good thing the railroad called back to confirm the order Hoskins placed.
Yeah, but I would love to have seen the Colonel's face when a locomotive pulled in with 50 tank cars.

The Israeli Defence Force takes delivery of their new Main Battle Tank.

BAE design the UK's new Main Battle Tank, and a fine machine it is, however funds for the big gun come up a bit short.

As the Out of Service date approaches the Army gives up their old tanks. However they have to pay the scrap man to take them away....
To late they find the replacement electric units only have a 10 mile range so to get anywhere more rail lines are needed

In an attempt to subvert the planned sale of the Warrior, the British Army demonstrates electrification of the Warrior by running it up and down the west coast mainline.
