I had the opportunity to travel through Germany and the UK by rail, this was something I wanted to experience. Jumping in and out of trains and watching a multitude of people travel this way was amazing.
Trains in Europe/Asia are light years ahead of American rail transport for people. I truly wish it was better! I would take a train in an instant if reliable reasonably fast transport was possible here. When I was working and had bi monthly meetings in NYC, I took the HST(high speed train)-Acela between DC and NYC and loved it!

Nice capture Andy!

Thank you both. Dan, I was truly shock at how well the network of trains is present in Europe. They are like clock work, and travel is nice and easy. I bought myself a first class ticket to see what the fuss was all about for a 3 hour ride. Very comfy seats and great service.
