I took this one in Massachusetts a couple years ago in the fall
Beautiful!
Holy crooked ass tracks. Surely any train going more than 50kmh would derail immediately.
It’s a scenic railway, so it’s antique train cars that serve dinner, sight see, or recreate the Polar Express for kids in the winter.
It might do 50kph (about 30mph) briefly, but mostly just puffs along at half that.
Yeah. If this were used for actual passenger rail they’d have to redo the tracks.
