I was just thinking that..

Trams of former times had a pedal for the driver to stamp on when traction was 

poor. It deposited sand infront of driving wheels allowing Dundee trams to climb some of the steeper routes. Perhaps some similar, but more expensive, dispensing system could help trains?

Sorry Ken but your a few decades late with that suggestion. 😀

So what's a hot box detector?

It was a device alongside the track that could detect overheating bearings in the axle boxes of trains.

We make Birds Whisk & Serve in ours. Then it gets pride of place on the dining room table at pudding time. Our guests love the minimalist approach 

You can proberbly use Birds whisk and serve in the bike, but don't serve guests 10/40w. It could soil the table cloth.
