Martineski,

The train looks so out of place. Haha

safesyrup,

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

@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.

lntl, w Public Ownership of Rail Is on the Agenda. Here’s What It Could Look Like.

same as the interstate highway. federally owned alignments, rails, signals, etc enable private operators to offer transport services based out of private yards

@lntl @Rentlar Why is how the public ownership of railways could work a hypothetical in the US?

Many countries already do this right now.

Here's a link to the Australian Rail Track Corporation: https://www.artc.com.au/about/

It's owned by the Australian Federal Government, owns rail track infrastructure, but doesn't operate any freight or passenger services itself.

Here's a link to VicTrack: https://www.victrack.com.au/

It's owned by the Victorian state government, owns rail infrastructure in Victoria, but doesn't operate any freight or passenger services itself.

Rentlar,

It was that way in the US and Canada before too (Conrail and CN specifically). There’s no good reason it couldn’t be feasible today.

If you are in NA, get the word out to your people you know, then direct it to state legislators, congress people, MPs, MPPs.

Fixbeat, w Women drive fast train to Mecca as Saudi workforce evolves

Disappointed, I thought they were driving Saudi mechas.

NarrativeBear, w California takes first step in acquiring trains for High-Speed Rail

Hopefully the implementation is done in a well and thoughtful way, such as connected stations in city centers and outskirt towns.

It would also be nice to see these stations interconnected with transit hubs such as subways/trams/buses, and have a pedestrian orientation focus with cycle infrastructure included.

It would be a shame to see these station built outside of walking distance of any surrounding communities in the middle of nowhere with a carpark all around. Something similar to a Walmart Supercenter parking lot.

Rentlar,

You can see on the California government website where the current plan is to integrate with each part of the city. Many of the bigger population centres will have stations right at (what sound like to me as) major transit hubs. Unfortunately, the 2030 target is for operation between Bakersfield - Madera, so the parts around SF and LA will still take a bit longer than that.

JJROKCZ, w California takes first step in acquiring trains for High-Speed Rail

Nice! Implementation of high speed rail is needed to get the populace away from frequent wasteful flights

zeropublix, w Amtrak Might Bring 200+ MPH Japanese Bullet Trains To Texas

Electric trains with their network? Sounds fun

rowifo7664, w A picturesque NG station

Barog station is indeed one of the gems of the Kalka–Shimla narrow‑gauge railway, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Nestled in the hills of Himachal Pradesh, it’s famous for its dramatic setting: the platforms curve gracefully right as trains emerge from a long tunnel, creating a striking visual that feels almost cinematic.

soitbelle, w A Narrow Gauge Locomotive on the Kalka Shimla Rail Link, India

A diamond ring of this caliber is more than a piece of jewelry, it’s a work of art. The exquisite craftsmanship, flawless detailing, and radiant brilliance of the stone come together to create a truly timeless masterpiece. Every facet reflects elegance, sophistication, and the kind of luxury that speaks without needing to be explained. This is the type of ring that elevates every moment, capturing both beauty and emotion in a single, breathtaking design.

fery68marget, w A Narrow Gauge Locomotive on the Kalka Shimla Rail Link, India

KSR stands for Kalka–Shimla Railway. ZDM refers to a class of locomotives in Indian Railways where Z denotes narrow gauge, D indicates diesel haulage, and M means the locomotive is designed to handle both passenger and freight services though freight trains do not operate on this section.

buggy-pull-buggy, w Paris-Berlin night train to be revived by Belgian-Dutch cooperative (European Sleeper)

European Sleeper believes that the Paris-Berlin night train is economically viable

based on what? Two other companies have stopped this because it wasn't economically viable. This feels like some train-fan-boy pipe dream rather than an economic reality.
