Just when you think visiting Australia can't be any stranger, the Brits turn up a new one by discovering the resting place of the first person to circumnavigate Australia while renovating a train station. Remember, kids, always use lead for your coffin plate so if you are lost for a few centuries, people who find you will know who you are.

    Italy, so incredible, the trains were on time, on schedule, and very importantly, on location. And the Italian Turnpike -- the Autostrada -- magnificent! You go to China, you go to Japan, they have fast trains all over the place. We don’t have one fast train. It’s the same thing with our airports. Our airports used to be the best. Now they’re at the bottom of the rung. Not for long. Next week is Infrastructure Week!!
