Fuck you foamer
Autistic train loner
Train tracks give you a boner
Every time you bump a thread I wish you were dead.
Every time you post a train you should blow out your brains.

Riding on my bike
Underwear too tight
I know that they can see my balls, but I don't even fight
The feeling that I know, cause on these wheels I flow
Autistically I'm beaming as I riding down the road
Trains they changed the game, my god they take the fame, strong enough that only engineers know how to tame
Next we got the jets, I dontevenfret, the sound of all these badass planes really make me wet
Now ill leave just a train, run from all this pain, I'll think about mistakes while I seperate my brain

The one in New Orleans because it's the oldest street railway in the world that's still operating (first line built 1835).

Wow, good thread, really makes me think. I'd also include one important factor and that's the price of the ride. Swiss systems are great indeed but you make you pay a lot.
For me it might be Dresden, they got really dense and fast tram system serving the whole city. But I have to say I'd like to see more separated tracks in there and some connectivity to rail network. Stuttgart has also pretty impressive light rail system. Oh and Brussels premetro is pretty unique but i never been there so i can't say.
This is hard question, really. But I think that we already know at least the region where to look at aka Germany and surrounding countries

I bet you Elon will do it.

Because supersonic chemtrails is a little too much, even for the gubberment.

>>1030907
Because people are dumb and impatient yet think one is less "wrong" than the other.

Both are illegal.

Bloomington, IN is home to Indiana University and tens of thousands of kids with daddy's money and not a lot of sense. The town is very, very bike friendly and there are many expensive and lightly-used bikes around. Many of these bikes aren't secured with the best locks, and they're left unattended in dark parking lots anyway. Many of these bikes find their way into the hands of individuals who transport them to Indianapolis and from there into... let's call it the secondary market. With the money generated from this endeavour drugs are shipped down to Bloomington for sale to the same IU students who are mourning the loss of their bikes.

It already has.

>>1028708
damn that bike looks FAST

>>1028708
No, no, and no, in that order.
All these frame materials have their place. Carbon fiber is not the end-all, be-all of bike frames, they'll always be more expensive and a harder material to work with. Steel and aluminum are easier to fabricate with, and more recent developments in manufacturing techniques have improved their ride characteristics significantly. Titanium has a particular mix of stiffness and lightness that isn't quite like any of the above. All the above have different ride qualities and characteristics. You won't see any of them completely disappear anytime soon.

You live in wierd world man

Also he got fired cause the management didn't like his crude behavior and the fact that he didn't want to work on the diesel locomotives there since he's a steam guy. And also that the railroad put more money into a new building that isn't as profitable as the steam program. Their main reason is that the management doesn't think that steam is profitable and since their target is children and mothers, they think they're stupid and would pay regardless cause any monkey could pull a train. They're going in the same direction as Mt Rainier Scenic Railroad. Honestly, they should've invested more into the steam program.

Stathi does not take credit of other volunteerss work, look at his old posts and youlll see he gives credits where due opposite what orhf attorney does

Which candidate will make Amtrak great again?

When I was going to school, nothing would make me happier than when I would accidentally end up on the Christmas train.

This isn't a good pic, but PATCO has a lot of woodgrain and everything is that 70s puke green.
It paired so well with the silver tinsel and the fake snow frosting they spray on the windows; like a rolling shop window display.

Make fun of their puns one more time, OP, I'll give ya a what for.

How the hell do you accidentally end up on a Christmas train?

There is a stream train here that does one and it's pretty fun.

What can I say, there aren't any abandoned transportation stuff here besides a closed used car dealership. The old tracks were all pulled up.

Are you in the USA by any chance?

Some years ago (I think it was between 2000 and 2005 or so?) the US changed a law that said that railroad owners could get tax credit for "upgrading rail lines".
That doesn't sound so bad, but it was really a loophole law.

China was in a massive building boom and was driving up the prices for scrap steel worldwide. The change in the US law meant that railroad owners could tear up unused tracks and sell the metal to China as scrap and not pay full/normal taxes on the income.

Not surprisingly,,,,, the law didn't say that they had to build NEW lines. But 'tearing up the old line' is apparently the first step in "upgrading a line", so it qualified.
Lots of older lightly-used US rail lines got torn up and are now gone. The right-of-ways are still there, but all the rails are gone.

Just a few years later (-oddly enough?-) US railroad companies began to have problems with...... where to park idle rail cars.

When you see white people with funny beards in Englewood,then be concerned about your rent.

>95th street

pick one

>>1032903
That's when you buy a cheap fixer upper in the neighborhood, fix it up, and start renting it to the people with funny beards. After they've been paying your mortgage for a few years you can sell the apartment at a massive profit since the prices have gone up massively.
