I find QR codes a little hard to get excited about (perhaps because I don't own 
a smartphone), but if we can get the railway publications, and through them the 
railway industry, interested in Wikimedia, it could lead to some very 
constructive partnerships. There are a lot of dilapidated railway articles that 
would benefit.

I've been sitting in the office with Stevie listening to him ring round the 
various railway magazines - it takes a while to explain QR codes to some of 
them, but once you start mentioning combining modern technology with preserved 
steam locomotives, you can hear their ears perking up...
