Dr. Yellow is so cool... love that 2nd video. It's so wild. You don't realize how tall these trains are because of platform heights, but that video puts things into perspective. Video of inside Dr. Yellow https://youtu

I once ate hamburger on an intercity train (Namba to Wakayama) in Japan because I hadn't eaten all day. The train was parked with its doors open awaiting for departure time. Just as I was taking another bite of sandwich, someone walks
