I'm on a train AMA.

My question for you is; why aren't you on a train too?

Thanks everyone for coming to my ama. I'm not on a train anymore so we'll have to do this again later!

I sometimes fantasize about being on one of them luxury trains with the beds and wood panelling and a bar car.

My area has a light rail that goes to the airport and the city which is really great for when we go to concerts and whatnot.

They're expanding it to go to two nearby cities but one part they had to tear down the tracks and start over for reasons and the other direction it's going to take them 20 years to add 20 some miles of tracks it's extremely embarrassing

I was once on a train for two days straight in China, 2008, and it was magical. I yearn to go back. The rhythmic rocking lulling me to sleep was heavenly.

It's alright. It's totally full and the seats aren't very comfy but it's cozy and I'm enjoying the view

I am glad you got a good view.

I wish I was on a train rn

Is it a double decker train, or other?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a regional commuter train. All electric, single decker.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Nice. Sounds smooth.

I was on a tram instead!

How did you become so cool and based?

I am not on a train because the closest passenger train station to me is over 100 miles away

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I walked onto the train and sat down and showed the conductor my ticket. Easy as that actually

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Are you still on the train?

Cuz they're only building one up recently...

Question: Nothing. All I have in my mind, reading yer post, is "lagtrain" by Inabakumori
