Or the well-to-do lady who was on a cruise all those years ago, asked the steward to lend her a penny as she didn't carry loose change on her, to which he replied "madam, this is Cunard, not P&O"...

I can't believe Cunard or P&O cruise liners had 1d in the slot loos. But before the mods end this, I'd point out that the GER Ongar branch has excellent free w.c.s, except Loughton's, which are extremely smelly....

The County Archives at Chelmsford hold plans for a late mid-Essex proposal, with definite station after Dunmow at Bardfield, with vague detail about finally connecting to the Colne Valley line at Hedingham. This was after quite a few previous plans from the 1900s on.

Yes, the so-called Mid-Essex Light Railway. But it never was to go anywhere near Chelmsford.
