Toy train trouble
BEDFORD, England (UPI) -
It wasn’t engineer William Blake’s
obsession with toy trains that
annoyed the General Post Office.
It was the 500 pounds ($1,200)
worth of post office equipment
he stole to build the toy complex.
Blake, pleading guilty, said he
stole telephones, cables and elec
trical goods over a five-year
period.
