Interesting Fact - Transport
French train operator SNCF has discovered that 2,000 new trains it ordered at a cost of 15bn euros (£12.1bn) are too wide for many regional platforms.
(Officials say around 1,300 platforms will have to be adjusted to create room for the new trains to pass through, because they were built more than 50 years ago when trains were a little slimmer.
Weren't we all.)
