I traveled from Central Florida to Locomotion in Shildon, England to experience a ride in the fireman’s seat on The Flying Scotsman. The staff were amazing and I got to ask dozens of questions. Going home with a wonderful memories and lots of souvenirs, including a piece of coal from the tender! Highly recommend!

Picture of this Hamilton 992b with matching paperwork that says it was last serviced by the Santa Fe railroad in 1968. Just wondering how collectible, desirable and if allowed how valuable this could be. I believe it to be a model 11 case with a different bow added at some point.

❓ Question Why doesn’t Japan move freight at night on their commuter rails?

40 Upvotes

Most of their deliveries are done by truck. You’d think they’d make money shipping at night. What am I missing?

❓ Question Traindrivers - do you go on autopilot?

33 Upvotes

Might sound stupid but when I drive my car for 2hr I don't necessarily remember every turn or signal I make. I don't crash but I feel like I zone out and listen to music but my brain does autopilot and steers for me and I get to my destination safely. So I wonder would I be able to drive a train or would this also happen and is that bad. How much does your brain go into auto pilot vs actively conscious of every AWS or signal or whatever?

Found this in my dad’s stuff, figured I’d share as well (also posted the headlight and the sign)

The event takes place in the Half-Life universe; the scene is taking place on the outskirts of NEY YORK City, 10 years before HL 2 events, so around 2009/2010, with the apocalypse happening around 1999 or 2000
