Topical question - what do Union of South Africa and Western Pathfinder have in common ... and in common with very, very few others? |

If you exclude letter prefixes, Western Pathfinder is 1001, Union of South Africa is 60009, Penyghent is 8.
All those numbers are the same upside down.

Correct ... I always "see" that in Union of South Africa when reading about it ... |

Nice bit of photoshopping there - getting the driver right way up. Should've perhaps mirrored him as well!  |
