  • The Graveyard of Empires by Jacob G. Hornberger

    They don’t call Afghanistan the graveyard of empires for nothing. Just ask Great Britain and Russia. It seems that the U.S. Empire, however, is bound and determined to prove that it’s the exception to that adage.

Trains: Amtrak the fast track

PDF Print E-mail


 

Today. I am going to wrie on one of the most powerful train company in the US. Amtrak

Now I will be writing train articles every once a month. I love Amtrak trains such as the Superliner, Metroliner and many more. Amtrak train has better services than KTMB of Malaysia. All of you must see the Amtrak Superliner because it is a double storey passenger coach.

The engine that pulls the superliner is called the (Genise). In the game called Trainz 2009, Trainz Rail Simulator 2006 and Trainz Rail Simulator 2004, the Amtrak trains are featured. I just have Trainz Simulator 2009, which is very fun and it is like so realistic when you play the game. it is even more realistic than Microsoft Train Simulator.

Amtrak Train does not go so smooth sometimes. The number of accidents are super high for such a powerful train. Once the ‘genise’ engine carrying the Superliner crashed on top of a freight car. Some people say it is train mate! There is also Acela Express it is like the American commuter but only longer and faster than KTM Komuter.

There’s also BNSF. This means the Burlington Northern Santa Fe trains and it carries freight (cargo) through Montana and other states. It can carry freight weighting up to 50 cars, yes the cars you drive!

The engine Acela HHP8 is quite fast, similar to the Amtrak Acela engine, can only be coupled to passenger coach such as the Metroliner.

The Union Pacific is another company in the US. It can carry freight like the BNSF but it is more powerful and services the northern part of the US.

If you want to learn more about these trains, go to www.google.com and type Amtrak. Maybe you will get to learn more from the many websites and also Youtube.

My next train article release will be Train Santa Fe, which of course also in the US. Maybe it will be released in April so readers come again to read my next articles.
