That one has always confused me.  Who is Tojo The Dwarf?

Not sure about this but..........

 

The story goes that there was a short PW foreman on the railway who had a very dictatorial style with his crew, something of a martinet in fact. It earned him the nickname of 'Tojo'.

To wind him up they would daub 'TOJO THE DWARF' in places by the railway where he might see it.

 

The main (railway) line North out of Brum crosses the New (BCN) Main Line just behind where the pic was taken.

 

I've no idea where I remember this from (and its probably wrong) but its a good story nevertheless

For really bizarre graffiti visit the Tame Valley, for example:

 

'Does the evil Satan control your life'

(As opposed to the silghtly naughty Satan?)

 

'Give me back my powers or I destroy everywhere'

(Now this one is really odd. What powers have been taken away that still leave the writer with the power to destroy everywhere, one wonders?)
