Dr Beeching MP Minister of Transport

Over-inflated, out of place and too expensive. No, not Dr. Richard Beeching, but Britain's railways in the late 1950s. The "good" Dr. Beeching here comtemplates axeing the network, sorry, "The Reshaping of British Railways", in April 1962. An antediluvian tank engine innocently loiters, unaware it's a prime candidate for the Beeching axe, or oxy-acetylene cutter.
