I would love we had those trains here. Ours always get stuck as soon there is a single snow flake in the air, with inevitable delays as consequence. As if we would never have snow here in winter...:mad:
Makes a point in sticking with the Land Rover, though.

Crikey, that was a long train!  It looked like fuel train.
Loved the billowing snow, the driver wouldn't see anything if he hit something.

Hi Mick, here is a steam rotary in action.
I have an hour long video of this in action and it is fabulous but I could not find any clips from that video, but this is good enough to get your blood running.

Hi Drivesafe,
Is this part of the documentary? If so it was on free-to-air TV a few months ago and is repeated every so often.

A bit of a wild guess here Lebanon, but I'm thinking that's not close to your house. ;)
Thanks for posting.

I think the snow would cushion the impact, and muffle the screams :eek:
