THIS..............................^^^ is a footnote error. A footnote
to a footnote belongs in the footnote text, not after the first footnote
reference

&&& - use a different marking scheme for the footnote listing proper. I
use "1 -" to denote the start of the explanatory text

Just thought you'd like to know. :-)
On the single wheelset issue. The real Talgo has bars that tie one car
to the next, and to various points on the wheelbracket. These bars,
somehow, cause the wheelbracket to turn to the correct angle. Note that
the two wheels are NOT on the same axle.
The Jaunary Trains points out that there are 14 connections between one
car and the next if you count all the bars and links etc. Whew!
