All of them

Antarctica has a rail line along the entire coast line? That's fancy, to bad it has no stations though, probably you just hop on while the train is going.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm surprised that train can effortlessly reach Marie Byrd Land. It's so hard to get there that no colonizing country claimed it. And until 2048, nobody CAN claim it.

And for the record, I've never rode a single mile on that track, so I am one of the people who have least road it. I would describe it's whole existence and service in black and white if there was anything black about it.

What a cunt xD

Damned car lobby keeping us from high speed rail in Antarctica. Just try looking up walking directions on Google maps, you just know it'll have you going all sorts of ways because there no pedestrian infrastructure!

I'm waiting for a Jay Foreman Every Station song.

Reuters Tomorrow?

I'm assuming RM Transit, though I've never seen it abbreviated to RT

On the plus side the train is never late.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

So, there's a rail line throughout the entire coastline? Interesting...

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

But not one station. You just have to try to jump on and hope you get lucky.

Penguins will help you to soft-land (is this even a word?).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

No. It is not a word.

It is two words.

The GTA5 method...

For a second I read that as America, and I thought, eh, pretty close.

Reindeer, polar bears, and arctic foxes really need to step up their engineering game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm sure they're doing all they can already.

I know its a shitpost, but there are a couple tiny railways in Antarctica from many decades ago that are no longer used. source

[–] [email protected] 27 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If I were to find all the most common phrases in this community, "I know it's a shitpost, but..." would be near the top.

(Seriously though, that's interesting. Thanks for sharing.)

Reddit had a habit of severely siloing subreddits. You'd get banned from a shitpost sub for saying something factual.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Here's where the three railways mentioned in that article are, for anyone else who was curious https://i.imgur.com/7t4WpQ0.png

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

Holy shit! There's a railway line that connects all 3 with nothing in between??? Shit man. I heard they get negative 60 degree winds. Must be a hell of a scary ride! No wonder they don't use it anymore....

I'm not going to bother downloading this; it updates too frequently.
