  I know Mr Pardini personally, a master locomotive engineer he is not. Experienced, sure, but he nearly had the FRA take his engineers license away after he ass ended another train.

  I was going to say. When he said profits, he was referring to weakening the Union and not only cutting workers but also their pay and benefits. Profit almost always comes from worker financial constraints or pay cuts in English. Guys like this owner was part of a group of, basically, modern carpetbaggers who popped up out of the sewers after Reagan and his 'gang' got deregulation going. That was because the people's government was 'their enemy' and had to be stopped. All of the transportation industries were deregulated and has been a disaster since. Even there the passengers absorb the torture of horrible travel conditions today, a byproduct of no regs protecting the people. This stuff goes on and on. Today the successors to Reagan and his kind are working to totally destroy government by the people, and making laws that enable that thinking. Yale and Harvard have been producing countless think tank yo-yos who are tripping over each other finding ways to do such things. And this railroad guy was out in the vanguard of those actions. He must be a hero to those kinds of people. To us regular folks he's just another criminal taking food off our tables while making themselves richer.

  The train was designed for Danish use. Easy to couple and decouple. We do have places where the train has to split. Here is a video of such a split, "on the fly". An ICE3 (the diesel) and IR4 (electric). "DSB IC3 (Litra MF) - IR4 (Litra ER) Intercity Lyntog ICL decoupling at Copenhagen Central Station". Coupling together: "Two Danish Nose type trains couple at Kristianstad Central."

  Because it was. These 2 sets (the consists shown was 2 3-car DMU's coupled together) were originally made for the Israeli railways but were sent to the US then Canada, and then back to the US for trials. Their light weight nature, being lighter on the axles than some LRV's did cause some issues

  @@Elliottblancher IDK about that, these trains are pretty optimised for hill climbing and somewhat steep gradients. In Denmark countless run through the great belt tunnel every day which features very steep entry and exits. And the ones in Israel like those on trial in North America, were specifically ordered for the old winding hilly railway to Jerusalem which shut down a few years ago after the electric high speed line was completed between underground Jerusalem and Tel Aviv

  How much of the original trackage is included in the “new” Edaville loop? Since part of the original loop is still in tact, I wonder if they will start doing more regular “there and back” trips similar to how the WW&F operates? Great footage btw

• 
  @EditGuy6610 Жыл бұрын

  Very little is included. The “new” loop turns left before the trackage up the east side of the reservoir. But that trackage is used for the Christmas trains, which go about 2/3 of the way up the existing track.
