Trains need to be long and stiff when they enter tunnels. Imagine a floppy train thrusting into a tunnel; it just won't go in; there'd be unsatisfactory chaos.
The problem is that all the delays that trains experience cause them to lose their ardour. I propose a fluffer, employing whatever method
best suits, to tumefy the train.
When not in use, the train will shrink so it will be easier to store.
Real train fluffers!

The idea is odd, the link just makes me uncomfortable. |

There is either some sort of innuendo being used that really doesn't work, or this is just a dumb idea to use some fancy words. I am not aware that trains are rigid so they can run in tunnels, most trains are pulled or are even self propelled at every carriage. so the basis of the idea is flawed. |

Its hard to deal with criticism. I will just try to keep a stiff upper lip while I endure your poking. |

fluff me pink ! I never knew that before. |

What is a "floppy train"? Is that similar to a
floppy diskette? |
|
|
I've heard that length has little to do with it and that stiffness is everything. |
|
|
So, which one came first? |

Looks at [DenholmRicshaw]'s profile page; a fair proportion of the ideas seem similarly focused. |
