Big Train: Small Train

One of my more bizarre set-piece rambles when I'm bored revolves around musing aloud about what our world would be like if there was no such thing as scale drawing. What would maps be like? I guess the answer would be "Big. Very, very big."

Globes would be downright irresponsible, I suppose.

This vapid nonsense constitutes the flimsy excuse I require to post one of my favourite Big Train sketches: the one about the minister who can't grasp scale. A work of pure genius.

Enjoy.
