Wonder why newspapers manage to put inapproriate photos to illustrate
articles - Saturday's Sydney Morning Herald article discussing NSW State
Rail's problems in efficiently maintaining the network has a photo of a
Melbourne Comeng train accompanying the text.
Probably not as bad as an advertisement appearing a few years ago with a
coupled Sydney L/P tram which was meant to depict Melbourne.  Or what about
the Sydney Leyland triple deck bus masquerading as a London one in the
British Airways ad a couple of years back.  (yes it was a triple decker, and
I haven't been smoking funny substances)
