A cracking idea but do they have any plans to farm/reuse/turn into lamb the older models, I wonder!?!

Perhaps Britain's railways could try this, however seeing how much actual rubbish we have alongside our tracks, maybe goats or camels would be better!!!

Cheers,

John.

Goats were used for a while on the ECML just north of Huntingdon. Not sure if they're still there now though.

There's lots of evidence that Indian Railways use goats to keep station areas clear.

 

Here's one I took 6 months ago!

The goats had free reign at Cochin. (Well, so did I.  :)  )
