He also used it to avoid paying the toll on The Rock Island Line, Lonnie Donegan accompanied him in the Deltics cab, hence the song having Leadbelly's original lyrics modified to include not paying their way, also Chris Rea took Lonnie Donegan in the Time Transit where they crossed the Appalachian Mountains, Cumberland Gap in the early 1920's, they heard locals singing the song "Cumberland Gap" but again Lonnie Donegan changed the lyrics slightly, with the 15 Miles To The Cumberland Gap part coming from the fact the Time Transit was low on petrol, and Lonnie Donegan was calling out how far to The Cumberland Gap Gas Station, Lonnie Donegan is a household name, thanks to Chris Rea

Anyway the drawers to the TURDIS are overflowing with purloined teaspoons, he now makes a point with every visit for his cuppa , to nick of with these wooden stirrers, his ambition is to build a wooden replica of the transporter bridge, full size.
Of course it won't be a working replica, just a model.
