Some 40 odd years ago, I was in a bar (surprise!) drinking with some railway train drivers (Diesel-electrics). The conversation got around to:

"Ere, you know summat abaht electrickery" - to which I pleaded guilty.

'Wot's this 'ere 'weak fielding' wot we use to go faster? How does it work?"

It took about 20 minutes to explain......and got me free beer!
