    Train pulls out of a turn - GIF

    Train pulls out of a turn. It's like walking into a curved endless hallway.

    Is there some kind of bounty paid by Asian governments; amateur videos advertising modernity, sophistication, industry to the world? Or is intended audience internal, filling gap left in censoring the largest net search engine...

    Surely tens of thousands ride every day, going along absorbed by other stimuli....but someone like us turned an eye to what was going on, with a degree of appreciation.

    The above is one of the most beautiful train GIFs I've seen.

    Anyway, found this today. Anyone?

    Passing over banks of mag-lev propulsion? Stimulation from track switch gear? Probably right over the drive motors.
    Not only they stand up, demonstrates a low degree of vibration. A nice comfortable means of transit!
    But I always wear steel toed boots. Onboard will I attract notice with impromptu pirouettes? Haven't done that on any of the Blue or Green Lines in LA, or BART in San Francisco.

    I think it has something to do with the Vernal Equinox.

    The paper clips thought it was their stop but when it wasn't they went back to sleep.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    electro magnetics are awesome (sorry about modern cliche) but those trains really get mobile: who needs a v12?
