That was the Sixties and as the saying goes ... "If you remember the Sixties, you weren't there!" I could hear Eric Burdon's voice, but the words were fuzzy ... but colorful ... Wow! Groovy!

... and my hair was very short back then - I believe you had to call me Corporal Marsland at that time.

But not to actually hijack this thread ... I'm still in favor of a little spill ... not a lot ... just a little ... just enough so as not to present the viewer with the kind of clean, scrubbed, idealistic, non-weathered, nothing out of place, neatly-manicured, toy-like Plasticville model railroads that were found in basements in the Sixties! (Nice tie-in, eh?) Think about it, if the walkway wasn't there, no one would notice the spill-over on the ground below the bridge.
