I was looking at a railway map of Europe recently, and, following the lines, I had a flashback to this old Commodore 64 game. A rather cheesy platform game with vaguely Spectrumish graphics, but somehow it had stuck in my mind all this time, or at least the association between the themed screens and various European locales (from a 1980s English holidaymaker's point of view, by the look of it).

that's funny, when i hear the 'auf wiedersehn monty' .sid i have chemical brother flashforwards.

train timetables make me think of the c64 game that read out your score with dodgy speech synthesis ... 'your' 'score' 'zero' 'zero' 'zero' 'five' 'three' 'two' 'seven' 'zero' ... now what was that called again?
