One of the last escapees before the border closed was a Prague tram headed to Derbyshire
People in the UK seem to have a particular fascination with trains and similar contraptions. Aside from the Scottish film Trainspotting, which is actually about heroin addicts, there is a more or less legitimate hobby across the UK of waiting to see particular train cars go by and writing down the serial numbers.

It looked like something from a 1930s science fiction series: the 1937 Tatra T87 was the avant garde of automotive design. Even with an output of just 75 horsepower, the aerodynamic T87 still reached tops speeds close to 150 kilometers per hour. Spats over the rear wheels and the long, sloping rear were an early attempt at streamlining.
The striking fin down the back helped to stabilize the car at high speeds. Tatra collector Ulrich Platzek found his personal T87 not far from the old Tatra plant in the Czech Republic. Drive it! takes a closer look at this fanciful vintage Tatra.

Goede avond,
Afgelopen dagen ben ik op bescheiden schaal weer begonnen te werken. Dat wil ik nu zo spoedig mogelijk uitbreiden.
Ik wil u daarom uitnodigen voor op dinsdag 29 september 12.15
In Oktober moet ik helaas voor zeker een week opnieuw verzuimen, dit in verband met een operatie.
Graag hoor ik van u of deze afspraak schikt.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Kees Smit
