The British railways have evolved a code of telegraph language which draws largely upon the animal and vegetable worlds. Animals, reptiles, insects, flowers, and fruits all contribute to a time-saving code. Thus asparagus means “Do you agree to times of trains as under? ” and scorpion stands for “ Carriage truck open (ordinary).” Bloater means a "fourwheel large covered fish-truck ” and beetle a “special cattle wagon.” If the goods department at Slowtown-on-the-Mud gets a telegram “ Frog ” it knows that it stands for “ Following wagons (named) detained at your station under load. Get them discharged at once and send to-day full written explanation of detention.”
