neutral  Ward Whittaker: Just be aware Clauwolf, the three examples you chose have probably been translated from Port to Eng. "channeled gas" gives only 1,480 results whereas "mains gas" gives 123,00. Be careful not to introduce a translation error into this. cheers

neutral  Douglas Bissell: These examples look strange. Chaneled, with a single "L" as in US English, followed by the word "railway" in clear UK English, is certainly suspect.
