Comments on: Probably The Longest Train in the World http://www.neatorama.com/2007/05/15/probably-the-longest-train-in-the-world/ The Neat Side of the Web Thu, 16 Feb 2012 20:23:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: James Schend http://www.neatorama.com/2007/05/15/probably-the-longest-train-in-the-world/comment-page-1/#comment-110565 James Schend Tue, 15 May 2007 12:44:57 +0000 http://www.neatorama.com/2007/05/15/probably-the-longest-train-in-the-world/#comment-110565 I have a love/hate relationship with YouTube. While it's great to see all this content, it's terrible to see how poor most people are as camera-men. For instance, if you're going to stand in the same place for two minutes, BRING A TRIPOD! I've seen longer trains, too. In fact, by definition, I don't think any train with only three engines pulling it can be the longest... a truly long train runs at least 5-6. Here in Washington, we have trains of containers, cars, lumber and the occasional 737 fuselage that run on 6 engines. I think this one just looks longer because it has hundreds of the same type of car. I did enjoy it's crazy-ass caboose. (It looks like a mobile home on a flat-bed.)
