Some people think, a railway gate that is down, still invites for trespassing.
Tough luck when the nearing train is so near that you get hit by it. But the
real tough luck is, when a second train is arriving. In this hit’n’run, a

This guy caught the idea of filming an ICE3 (Deutsche Bahn) passing by at
300 km/h (186 mph), According to his shout-out I guess the wind wave that
hit him was somewhat strong! But despite the fact of a heavy wind striking
you I guess it’s really dangerous! Do not try this for yourself!

…or when trains fly by with 400 km/h (250 mph)! The red arrow (the
translation for “frecciarossa”) as the new italian high-speed train is called
is supposed to reach 400 km/h albeit the operational speed is 360 km/h.

Racism, hatred… face it! Wherever you go, there’s at least someone who lives
patriotism the false way. In the following video, I was shocked about a young
woman with child complaining about immigrants and black people in London.
Delicate: She complained in a full suburb train with some black people!

Sure… it seems to be a classical fake but it think, it is a good one. So if you
hate waiting at a railroad crossing, then this train might be your dream.

Well, today’s entry from me is not related to economy (which seems to have calmed
a bit anyways) or from computer-related topics (nothing new happened so far).
Today I am writing about people who tend to push buttons for no reason… in tramways

…how do they relate? You may say: One can spot Munich from

True but as of today, another service from Deutsche Bahn has
reached Internet era.
