I was interested in the announcment at Waterloo "this train terminates
here". It would have been interesting if it hadn't.
Why? The train could be going onto other stations.

It would be more interesting if it did. The thought of it vanishing into
a pile of scrap at platform 12, is interesting, to say the least.


There are plenty of 'termini' where the train stops, passengers alight
and board, and then the train reverses and goes on somewhere else.


I cant see why you made that (stultifyingly obvious) point with respect
to what I said. Its nothing to do with it.
