.. I'd be happy to wire up some sort of electrical gizmo and beamish you there at nearly the speed of light.
Ms. Bright had one. Are you familiar with Ms. Bright?
Her speed was faster than light.
She set out one day in a relative way
And returned on the previous night.

If you enjoy trams and nostalgia I recommend this place
https://www.tramway.co.uk/
Not too far from where I used to live. On a good day not that many years ago( well perhaps more than I care to remember) me and a friend would cycle there despite the very hilly terrain! Well worth a visit.

This was filmed at the Crich tramway museum. Complete with period music and vocal refrain!
