The Fire/rescue service at Auckland International Airport had an SRN6 in the 1970's and Air NZ had the maintenance contract. During a major refit we had to restore the buoyancy tanks as they were badly corroded due IMO to being made from aircraft grade Aluminium which is alloyed with copper amongst other things. Salt water, copper and aluminium sure made for a lot of corrosion ! The other aspect was the Rolls Royce Gnome turboshaft engine which probably wasn't designed to breathe corrosive salt spray needless to say the time between overhauls was short.

I traveled form Calais to Ramsgate on a Hoverlloyd SRN4 in 1980 , it was a very rough beam sea and the spray blotted out any view. The corkscrew motion quickly made some passengers violently seasick particularly those seated in the outer corners of the cabin. Amazingly The crew still managed to serve refreshments, I think on a tray ! As we disembarked I glanced rearward and saw a handful of sick passengers propped up against the rear bulkhead by crew, they were hyperventilating and literally their skin was green tinged, fun times.

This is the Lynton and Barnstaple railway 🚃 that ran from 1898 to 1935 is for 37 years had a short life. It’s a narrow gauge. I think 🤔 the reason why trains 🚆 stopped running 🏃‍♂️ from Barnstaple to Lynton via Blackmoor Gate is perhaps 🤔 because the line wasn’t viable and was forced to close down the line. At present 💝 in 2023, there is limited parts of the Lynton to Barnstaple railway 🚃 line. The railway 🚃 track 🛤️ was single with a limited short passing loop 🔂 on the single line to allow the other train 🚊 to pass. It’s not part of BR - British Rail. In the carriages, it’s nice and and warm inside. The line is not dead 💀, however is sleep 🛌 😴 💤 . The track 🛤️ was ripped out. I think 🤔 it’s because that north Devon is a rural area. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
