Guess the weight of the cake

What about that really low bridge not from Swindon railway station it’s had more bangs than Katie Price, it’s a regular banger in the BBC, bridge bashing club including buses?

It may have helped getting that approved, that it is right next door to a Network Rail training centre.

Back in the 90’s, there was still enough health and safety that everyone had to stand back while it hit.

I apologise though, for those who work in metric, to add this hurdle of conversion!!
