    The over-ground stations on the Northern Line are really pretty inc Woodside Park, Totteridge & Whetstone. Used to be an awful train service tho !!

    You'd have to be a millionaire to live there, wouldn't you. But that goes for just about anywhere in Sydney these days, doesn't it?. I travel down to Sydney by train from the Upper Hunter Valley every now and then. On Sundays, it's $2.50 to travel the 250km from where I live to Central Station.

    Usually some nice * gets on the train at Uddingston anytime I've been heading into Glasgow.

    This is my full input into the world of trains.

    Cant get the best picture but the view you get from Balbriggan train station is class, makes waiting for a train nearly bearable.

    Grand central station in New York is perhaps the finest train station in the world without question. I have done inter-rail and many a Euro domino ticket down the years and some of the most scenic rail lines are in Austria and Switzerland but the Fort William-Mallaig line is up there with the best in Europe.

    Somewhere on the Caltech campus Sheldon Cooper is wondering what all the sticky stuff in the front of his trousers is, upon learning this thread exists.
