Kingston Trio's 'MTA', about Charlie, who went to ride on Boston's MTA after a fare increase and couldn't get off.

Union Pacific's massive Bailey Yards at North Platte, Nebraska, supposedly the world's largest. At one time there was a pleasant greeting in large letters to Russian spy satellites; "More trains than you can count'.

Interesting looking shots.   :tu:

Once saw a clip from an old movie featuring one of those one-seat hand cars. The heroine looked like she was in trouble even before she got on the trestle with the train coming at her.   :D
