EU Railroaded
Single Planet is intrigued by the fact that train-free Malta has a say in the running of European railways:
Malta and Cyprus have had representatives appointed to the board of the EU's new European Rail Agency, whose job "will be to reinforce safety and interoperability of railways in Europe". As neither country has any railway track - and never have had - this should bring immense benefits to European rail safety. Politics, eh?
Correction: Malta did have trains between 1883 and 1931 - Maltarailway.com

Ah,so Malta had railways until 1931. Then it is undoubtedly fully qualified to advise the rest of Europe on how to operate its trains. I stand corrected. - Mark
