And yet, and yet, these days are incomplete. 31. The Arrow and the Song by Henry Wordsworth Longfellow You’re grateful for who they are and you forgive ’em for what they’re not. 2. Tug o’ War by Shel Silverstein Car runs are a little more sedate and a real favourite with classic car enthusiasts. Drivers set off together on a pre-planned route, often taking in beautiful tours of Britain’s countryside. And there are plenty of car runs to choose from, from car-specific convoys like the famous London to Brighton Mini run, to more general outings for classics and sports models. The following year, Andre Picard, a French railroad worker and war veteran suggested that France reciprocate by sending a gratitude train filled with gifts and mementos from his countrymen. Much of 1948 was spent collecting gifts from individual citizens. They ranged from art, wine, needlework, local specialties, furniture, books, homemade toys and children’s drawings, including a jeweled Legion of Honor medal that reportedly belonged to Napoleon. All in all, over 52,000 gifts were collected. These were crammed into 49 railroad cars, meant to be divided amongst the 48 American states with the remaining car to be shared by Washington D.C and Hawaii. Each boxcar was decorated with a painted 'Gratitude Train' ribbon and with 40 coat-of-arms representing the provinces of France.

The 700-car Friendship Train sent by the Americans was the brainchild of Drew Pearson, an American newspaper columnist and nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. Pearson was in Europe when he noticed that the Russians were being lauded and 'thanked' for their contributions of a few carloads of grain delivered to Europeans. Being a staunch anti-communist, the great fanfare celebrating these meager gifts rankled Pearson. He believed that the United States could surpass the communists in sending food to the desperate, hungry Europeans.

Vladmir Trunkov: " It's nothing personal." ―Lightning to the lemons as Vladimir confirms they want to kill him, during the confrontation with McQueen in London Sharing a car is easier than you think.
