Go Slow?

Yet more travel disruption! A 'giant' tortoise on the tracks stopped trains between Norwich and Stansted Airport for more than one hour (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/aug/02/large-tortoise-on-the-track-stops-norwich-to-stansted-trains). The tortoise turned out to be a large 'pet' animal, rather than an endangered species from the Galapagos Islands.

The name 'Armadillo' is simply derived from a Spanish word, meaning "little armoured one".
