According to an executive order, the draft of which was seen by my uncle who works for amtrak, Joe Biden is going to make train travel MANDATORY for all americans and create a "Train Force" that will have the authority to randomly stop citizens and ask them questions about trains. Anyone who fails these quizzes will be sentenced to one of the many prison trains that will soon cross our nation. This is Biden's America.


anyway post your fav trains to a) prove your patriotism and b) help the less train-aware brush up on their knowledge and hopefully avoid railjail.


here's one of mine, the TurboTrain! designed by united aircraft and powered by a gas turbine





enthusiastic CHOO CHOO!s are not only encouraged but soon to be obligatory!
please dont send me to train jail mr. president

Listen Jack, trains are downright un-American, here's wha-here's what you need to do, you need to drive down in your Chevrolet to the corner store, pick up a box of chocolates for your best gal, and then gas up before, before you pick her up (wink) because you're going to be cruising all night, now that's American

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

At some point way back, one of the sub forums on SA had a theme with a jpg of several large bear type gentleman riding an inflatable rocket or something. I think it was a reference to man trains and I wonder if anyone know what I'm talking about.

Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

Prison trains? Exclusively because I don't know enough about trains? Can I expect to have free Internet and take some personal belongings with me? Can I get a stipend that I can save up for trips off the train when it stops somewhere fun or for other things? If the answers to all of these are yes, could you tell me where the nearest checkpoint is? I need to make very sure I don't run into it.


....nope, that's not going to change my mind any. Hell, that might make certain facets of prison train life easier. Er, not that I'm tempted by prison train welfare, gosh no, just tell me where the checkpoint is and I'll be on my way.

what's amazing is that if i remember right, while it's not going that fast in the video, that class locomotive had a top speed of like 105mph. like, fuckin' steam locomotives on passenger service were hauling rear end faster than most of the "modern" Amtrak fleet does today (although a lot of that is due to the freight railroads not building/maintaining their lines to the standard needed for 100+mph speeds, not so much due to the capabilities of the Amtrak locomotives)

Probably? I still haven't seen the musical, but that sounds about right.
