Are those adverts for the circuits or for folks selling their wares? :wink:

Apart from the roof sign's, you wont be able to distinguish between the two now. We still have saloon cars as hac's here. Admittedly they have to be black or white but at night it could be difficult.

The marshals have been issued with Police radio's now, so they can talk directly to an officer nearby, it works very well nipping any trouble in the bud.

So the taxi marshalls work at a PH office directing customers to PH cars?

As we have both Taxi and PH, yes you could call them "Taxi Marshal's"
