Are you looking to get hurt, son? We had a fucking BOARD dedicated to trains.

Looks like a solid train, why don't you like it?

>>20333781
Why are Tangaras terrible?
also

What a faggot, you don't like trains? idiot.

>>20333801
>>20333804
Once again, you'll have to use not only the train but the cityrail network to know the true disdain that it's patrons feel.
This year basically the whole network got brought down for 2-3 hours.

>the actual good trains
dickhead op is dickhead. these cunts are the worst

>>20333827
Bris fag here
ARE THEY GETTING RID OF THE BALLER AS DOUBLE DECKER TRAINS?
THOSE ARE FUCKING AWESOME, THE REVERSIBLE SEATS ARE THE BEST THING EVER.

>>20333801
Not trains in general, these specific trains.
>>20333804
Have you ever used public transport in Sydney? It's the city that makes Melbourne's problematic public transport look decent.

>>20333801
Not trains in general, just those trains. While every other country takes pride in their smooth and quiet trains, we get these screeching bastards.

>>20333834
The S sets?
Yeah, they're pretty bad.

>this thread
take your petty first world problem complaints elsewhere

>>20333855
Fuck off, we are discussing technology.

Any of the tin can trains cityrail runs I hate
Especially in the summer months where I'd rather leave home early and wait on the M5 raging at people

Post more trains.

Relevant as fuck.

Hey at least your train system isn't a clone of the one they have in fucking France.

>>20333848

Fuck yeah, I was cycling from rome to vienna last summer, and took a train from bludenz to bregenz and was pretty impressed. But damn, austria was rainy.

As a point of comparison, finnish railway system fucking sucks, trains are always late.

All your trains are inferior.

>>20333912
Riding these erryday

>>20333922

All your trains are peasant tier.

Don't like Tangaras much

Old silver fucks are the best

>Not glorious 320kph

trains suck in melb/vic too, just ordered a bunch more chinese trains too :(

>try to use city rail network
>its down
erry day

>>20333868
Yeah, and they charge a toll to use that stupid M5 and the petrol prices are bad enough. I find it cheaper to train and bus it to the city for Uni. Those mymulti concession tickets are reasonably priced for what they are.

UK TRAIN IS BEST TRAIN

>>20333853
I will say one things about the l, r and s and even the k sets too, that intercarriage part which is open is great riding in when the train is moving. Also great when you're feeling like a smoke.

>>20334020

GLASGOW CENTRAL IS BEST CENTRAL

Its speciality is being always late or never coming.

HURRR LET'S BUY ITALIAN TRAINS THAT PROBABLY ARE VERY SUITED FOR THE FINNISH HARSH CLIMATE CHANGES THAT RANGE FROM -30c TO +30c.

>>20334037
NOPE

>>20334037
I didn't see "central", fair enough maybe it is.

Don't have any more.

>>20334059

I miss this train, used to get the late bastard every day to glasgow for University until not too long ago.

>>20334091

Helps if I attach a picture

>HURR LET'S BUY SOME ITALIAN ENGINEERED TRAINS THEY WILL SURELY NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS IN THE MOTHERFUCKING WINTER BECAUSE ITALIANS ESPECIALLY DESIGNED THEM FOR FINNISH CLIMATE

Finnish train system sucks. It sucks hard. Recently it began sucking even more.

>>20334050
>>20334099
Got any finnish train announcements?
I'd want to hear them.

>>20334094
Wouldn't know much about it, my dad would though. Used to be a senior executive at BR so I get free first class travel :3

I want to play Transport Tycoon now

>Living in a country which still uses trains for travel
Sorry, I'm not a third worlder.

Latvian railways reporting in!

What the FUCK was Siemens thinking?

Anyone living in Amsterdam will agree.

>>20334116
Simutrans is much better you know

>>20334132
So what do you use to travel, a private jet? Enjoy your gas bill faggot

>>20334152

But those are fucking rare to hear inside the train since getting inside is like winning the lottery.

>>20334137
The hell, I was in just in amsterdam, the gvb's were great, accept for that stupid chip card

>>20334137

Sorry, but this is worse.

£1.7 trillion (like $3.5trillion?) to have it built, abandoned, leaving the capital in a mess for years with an non-operational, half-constructed tram line, no construction company to finish and having to pay to get it removed and fixed.

You don't have anything on the stupidity of the managers of this project.

>>20334116

I agree OP, I still don't understand why they haven't just changed them all over to Millennium's yet. The tin-cans are absolutely fucked, and the Tangara isn't much better.

Oh boy am I looking forward to another Summer on Sydney trains.

I wonder what the fuck they were thinking when the picked those colors.

>>20334379

The fuck? Are there actually trains like that?

>>20334137
WHat's not to like about the new trams in Amsterdam?

I only get confused with some gates for exiting and others for enterancing.

fuck your neat looking trains this is what i had to watch for 2 hours during my layover in Washington DC

what made it even worse was that the driver of it was incompetent as fuck. He was trying to pull 2 Diesel-Electric locomotives plus another one of these little bastards out of the way, and on then DE closest to him he apparently hadnt taken off the parking brake. So for 80 minutes i watched him: rev up the engine in the tug trying to move everything, backing down, getting out and checking all the connections, getting in, and doing it again.
Finally someone else came up, got into the cab of the DE and disabled the brake.
I hate the general american train system i really do. Although those Acela trains do look pretty sweet.

The RER in general is shit. At least it's fast

any south england bros in here? fuck these overcrowded pieces of shit.

Roermond-Venlo-Nijmegen is by far the worst. These trains are 100% crowded by Cuijk (usually earlier) EVERY FUCKING MORNING. I don't mean "no place to sit", I mean "no place to stand".

Meanwhile, the drivers are completely incompetent faggots with random 5 minute stops in the middle of nowhere without any form of announcement.

These trams.....god dammit.

"Hey, lets buy these Italian trams! They should be great!"

Half of them break down for no apparent reason during the winter, so 40 of them are in storage, forcing the city to bring out the shitty 60 year old trams.

Oh, and they're the wrong track gauge by a few mm too, so they make an extremely ear-raping squealing whenever they turn.

>>20334137
I hope the kept the old bell.

I like the Tangara. They have that design that shouts "LOOK I WAS DESIGNED IN THE 80s" and looked pretty nice in their original livery. They're not comfortable to ride in though.

Nottingham city trams. Pretty decent tbh. DIIIINNNNGGGG

The automated metro in Paris is great. Too bad it will probably get defaced by butthurt sandniggers soon or later.

>>20334752
Double doors so no one can reach the tracks?
Awesome.

I'm always paranoid getting pushed onto the tracks when a train arrives, so I always hug the walls.
