You know what I like about trains?

Everything.

They take you nice places, and don’t mess up the world getting you there.

TRAVEL ALERT!

I took a ride on the 105-year-old Train de #Charlevoix, one of Canada's last remaining excursion trains.

Whoa—STOP THE PRESSES!

The Federal Railroad Administration has just issued a study calling for increasing long-distance rail routes in the US from 15 to 30.

The cost would be a minimum of $45 billion, and would double the existing network.

I’m stalking the wild Stadler this week!

I caught one in its natural habitat this morning, the astonishing Centovalli region of southern #Switzerland.

Moment of Rail Zen.

The Patagonian Snowpiercer.

La Trochita, aka the Old Patagonian Express (which inspired Paul Theroux's book of the same now). This narrow gauge steam locomotive, one of 22 running to Esquel, can still crush the snow drifts in #Argentina.

What’s better than watching the Polybahn of #Zürich burst out of a building?

Taking a ride on it!

I love the fact that the cars have an open viewing platform at the upwards-facing end.

Is #RailSky a thing? Because it's got a nice ring to it. An even wider appeal than #TrainSky , I'd wager.
I’ve found myself on Railway-sky and I genuinely could not be happier.

(Anyone that’s had to listen to me bore on about the difference between cable cars and funicular railways just let out a collective pained sigh… 😂)
What do you see in this clip?

Sure, there's the Polybahn, the 1889 incline cable car that pops out of a city-center building.

But also note electric tramway passing under it, and all the people walking up the stairs to get to #Zürich 's Polytechnic.

True sustainable urban mobility, in one video!
