Even so, I still can't figure out why newcastle was so blessed when other
more deserving cities were not. God knows, Birmingham really needs a proper
underground system. If it was a city anywhere in northern or eastern europe
it would have public transport coming out of its ears.


Famously "more canals than Venice" which isn't surprising since
Birmingham is about 100x the surface area of Venice.
