nokturne213, w Inside America’s First High Speed Rail

I would love a train from Albuquerque to Denver. Currently for that trip you have to go through Chicago.

espentan,

Holy cow, now that’s what I call a detour.

If you go, pay attention to the schedule. They still run one steam loco per day, so two round trips, but most runs up and down the mountain are powered by the biodiesel fleet. The cog railroad dieselized to reduce operational & maintenance costs, and to reduce emissions. Parts for the steamers were getting hard to source, and while the coal smoke coming out of the steam locomotive makes for good photos, it’s not always the best image, if you know what I mean.

Lost_My_Mind, w How much does it cost to build a shortline railroad?

Not that I have millions of dollars lying around

Guys, he’s lying. He TOTALLY has millions laying around.

Martineski,

The train looks so out of place. Haha

safesyrup,

I can see why, but I kinda like it :D

@zabadoh

This one is interesting. The Abt system is only between two stations on a steep grade and a separate locomotive shunts with the train, not shown here.

The picture is of the beautiful and unique station that is located on top of the bridge.

I've ridden this one, and I would recommend earplugs if you have sensitive ears.

wtypstanaccount04, w Seibu 2000 series serving the Seibu Ikebukuro line as an express train
@wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net avatar

This is a fun series, but has been getting increasingly bizarre, even by its own standards.

I kinda wish they put a little bit more effort into the anime (overhead wires, signals, correct tracks, etc.) but the fact that it all takes place after the 7G event makes these issues handwaveable.

Ironically the abt system isn’t in the main photo

zabadoh,

You mean the special toothed tracks? Yeah, I couldn’t find a good photo with both the train and the tracks.

A lot of good first steps, but this shouldn’t be owned by a private company.

Novi,

That’s how things are done in the USA.

Wooster,
@Wooster@startrek.website avatar

Doesn’t mean we should shrug it off as acceptable.

yokonzo,

Still shouldn’t be

Taleya,

It should also be high speed. That speed is honestly laughable

Alexstarfire,

I’m not watching the video, what type of speed are we talking about?

Xavienth,

It says 200 mph in the description, or 320 kph. That’s respectable.

Beaver, w Freight railroads must keep 2-person crews, according to new federal rule first proposed under Obama
@Beaver@lemmy.ca avatar

Democrats are learning from East Palestine.

Rentlar,

Yep. Biden and administration has been improving stuff for both freight rail and passenger rail, possibly after letting them getting away with being too lax on safety. If he gets another term I really hope they can bring back Conrail which would bring back NS in good hands.
