If you don't understand electrolytic corrosion read up on it.
Stop playing silly games. You stated it was not possible due to it for some
chemical reason, I pointed out that its obviously done in certain cars (not to
mention aircraft) whereupon you suddenly decided it was all down to scale. So
are you going to tell us what the actual issue is or just keep blustering and
hope I get bored and give up?

Cars and aircraft spend very little time exposed to salt water spray.
Island Line trains go out to Ryde Pier Head station, where they are
exposed to salt water spray coming up from under the tracks.
