From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello and welcome to my page. I'm expanding it with a few pretty userboxes of, at the moment, a non-polemical nature and having discovered just how cool some of the pictures of the day are that's here too.

I'm a budding amateur on Wikipedia and generally I just correct things that I notice are wrong or read badly when browsing through, e.g. typos. I also add little bits of knowledge where I can and update articles where needed. I also like to have my say in deletion discussions etc.. I'm beginning to branch out into writing articles from scratch but, with over a million on here, I struggle to find things that aren't covered and that I might have a slim chance of understanding were I to research them.

If you disagree with anything I've written then please do say although if there's anything controversial I'll more than likely have written about it on the relevant discussion page. Or you could just write me a note to say hello. You could even write it in a different language to help me expand on my pathetic linguistic ability - I only have it up there to put myself to shame in the hope that I do something about it.


Canadian National Railway train
The Canadian National Railway (CN) is a Canadian Class I freight railway headquartered in Montreal, which serves Canada and the Midwestern and Southern United States. It is Canada's largest railway, in terms of both revenue and the physical size of its rail network, spanning the country from the Atlantic coast in Nova Scotia to the Pacific coast in British Columbia across approximately 20,000 route miles (32,000 kilometres) of track. In the late 20th century, CN gained extensive capacity in the United States by taking over railroads such as the Illinois Central and others.

Mmm, an intriguing set of predictions... does my mind really think that this could happen? Of course, any similarities between one of the scorelines here and that of the 1966 World Cup Final are purely coincidental. And somewhat optimistic as well.
