Honestly, I would ride a train anywhere. I dont care if it went from my bedroom to my garage...Id ride it every day.
Riding a train is kind of like sex if you will...Before you do it it seems like the greatest thing in the world...When youre there you dont want it to stop, and afterwords, all you do is plan for the next time...
I think we just need a pot where everyone pitches in for lottery tickets....All we need is one win, and we could probably restore half of the existing NG locos or rolling stock!!
