Ha, yes! But still a nice job. Funny, I was running arounds yesterday and we saw two Trailways buses nearly simultaneously - one crossing over and another merging and was thinking of the various threads here.

Whoever drew that sign did a nice job with it!

Interesting, thanks for posting. So, question, it's not totally clear to me, would this be Amtrak California running the trains or perhaps Caltrain?

I can't find a reference right now, but was there, at one time, another causeway or bridge for rail across the bay between Tampa & St. Pete? Or was that road/street bridge that was abandoned (what I remember from being told when I visited)? (edit) Interestingly, I found a reference to a...

Fascinating - Kolkata looks so intriguing. Must get off my duff and go.

Love that the background image is still single tracked in Tim's link...

Usually pulled at an endpoint (some, I think, can be disassembled). Off topic, but they developed a TBM that could do rectangular sections for a project in Hong Kong recently.

This is pretty cool - though I will say it's very "rainbow fleet" in some ways.

Seems to me this is just a one time deadhead. If there are chronic and consistent sell-outs between Chicago and Milwaukee, maybe it's time to really fly between them and get Metra to extend all the way.

Oh, it was a USC bus....

Yay! At last and woo-hoo!

Metra (and even the CTA) cover most of the park & ride needs of the Chicago area.

Corfam!

88 minutes is a huge time savings!

In the article West Point posted it mentions making decisions about new station locations - that, along with land procurement, design, bidding and construction of said stations will take a couple years at least.

LOL'ing at "the longest sauna in Sweden" comment, which, btw, is apparently absent in the Swedish version (will check more later on that).

Are they using like old Metroliners or Amfleets? Looks like they are buying a lot of second hand stuff from around the globe! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tren_Interoce%C3%A1nico I'll have to post later, but I've seen a proposal somewhere for Baja California rail!

Nice photo journaling on these posts, but this one looks like you're sitting at a counter with some huge coffee mugs....

I recognized those big black bumpers and hadn't realized that those had been tested (but it does bring back a vague recollection) - I've heard that they aren't the most reliable in Danish service or something (learned from a video watching someone taking them in DK - I think it was DSB - they...
