So I need to find a train then!
I just called National Rail...
...who then forwarded me to customer enquiries...
...who then passed me on to help and assistance...
...who then fobbed me off to maintenance management or something (I'd started to phase out by now)...
...who then said what everyone else pretty much told me, that it would be highly unlikely that a) I would be allowed to draw on the side of a working train, even with disposable materials, and b) any UNworking train that was available, ie: in museums funded by National Rail for example, I wouldn't be able to draw on for conservation reasons or something.
I thanked them for their time and ended the conversation dejected. Although to be honest, I expected nothing less.
It sounds stupid I know, drawing on the side of a train. When I've told people about my idea they don't seem to get it. A woman I just spoke too even laughed at how crazy it sounded.
It's ok, all part of the territory I suppose. If I can't take criticism or work through amused and confused responses to my ideas, then I'll no doubt lose a lot of them along the way that might have proved exceptional if I'd just seen them through.
I'm gonna try and see this through.
Although dejected, I'll keep looking for an answer to my dilemma. I believe in my idea I know it could work, and if it did, it will all makes sense to those who didn't quite "get it".
