I have just watched a YouTube that claims Tesla is about to launch an e-car costing $12,000.

When it comes to explaining why heatwaves play such havoc with railway transport, it is agreed it is mostly down to continuously-welded steel rails not being able to expand and contract. I have just heard the leading academic expert on this, qua British railways, say
| In hotter countries they may well lay their rails at a higher temperature but most hotter countries don't have the cold winters we do. |
His interlocutor, a senior ex-railway executive turned YouTube host, did not demur from this. Britain, in fact, has probably the lowest annual range of temperatures of any of the major railway nations. If two of our more notable experts don't know this, I fear the havoc will continue for sometime yet.
