I submitted one which they published. Our local 'paper had reported that a certain late train still ran to stations beyond Ipswich yet British Rail showed it finishing AT Ipswich. Challenged, BR explained that 'if we had that still in the timetable then people would use it to go beyond Ipswich' As good an excuse as you need really ! It's a pity that such finds are now lost to the rest of the nation.
