"I like to think I live on the most famous railroad the world has even known - the U.S. Transcontinental Railroad. "

Not sure that I know that one, but I've heard of the Trans Siberian Railway. :)


Train spotting was something that all of us kids did in England back in the '60s. I have a clear memory of "Caledonian 123" coming through one day. Thinking back on it now it must have been something special at the time, being on the Southern region between London and Brighton just where the line branches off to Lewis.
