>>34293The surprising thing to me is that others did not standardize. I would have expected at least the EU to have done so. I guess metros don't get that much of this kind of attention as rail or whatever because they are mostly closed systems.

>>35144building rail in lithuania seemed to mainly just be formality anyway, it's only eurasia and africa that matter, not europe and especially not coastal europe where everything is already developed for trade. china's interest is in being impossible to besiege by embargo or sanctions, hence its priorities are building the belt and road.

I don't like that bullet trains are named after bullets. Bullets are violent and evil and warlike. There's nothing warlike about fast trains. They should get some nice non-violent name that makes them welcoming but still makes it clear that they are fast, like "Sonic the Hedgehog train" or something.

The Cabo Sun reports that the President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, has set his sights on a new project: building a passenger rail line in the Baja California peninsula to be called the Tranpeninsular Train

>Crimean type Coastal Defense Armoured trains commanded by the Black Sea Fleet. 7 built using warship plating and guns in 1941 to prepare for the Axis invasion. Armament was 3x 76.2 mm 34-K Duel purpose naval guns, AA DhSK-38s and a bunch of M1910 Maxim Guns >Sometimes they used older 76.2mm guns instead of the 34-K, (full designation 76.2 mm/55 (3") 34-K Pattern 1935) here’s the full information on the guns for anybody interested http://www.navweaps.com/Weapons/WNRussian_3-55_m1935.phpAdditionally some of the trains packed a mortar car with 2 x 82mm or 107mm mortars.
