[edit] Ruskin rails
I mangled the Ruskin quote somewhat - here is a fuller version, (at various places on web), with rather more of the poet to it :-)
- ... You enterprised a railroad through the valley – you blasted its rocks away, heaped thousands of tons of shale into its lovely stream. The valley is gone and the Gods with it, and now, every fool in Buxton can be at Bakewell in half-an-hour, and every fool in Bakewell at Buxton; which you think a lucrative process of exchange – you Fools everywhere
