This is an extract from my post here: Post #1966 (Interesting Graphs and Charts).

Some years ago International Alloys in Aylesbury sent tanker loads of molten aluminium to their plant in Birmingham, a journey of about 75 miles.
I have a vague recollection that the load would lose 1 deg F for every mile travelled.
I assume that the tank was exceptionally well insulated and that some form of heating was involved, but the consequences of an accident didn't bear thinking about.
Which prompted Bruce to post this:

This is what happens.

We climb every mountain, sail every sea, as nature permits, only as nature permits. :haha:
I was reading yesterday, up in Ottawa 1942, it took them five days to chop the ice off the tracks to get the street cars moving.
