Alright, Tooters, new and old -- Mastodon is fun, but it's more fun for new people when there's stuff happening. So: what was your favorite #train journey? Was it on #HighSpeedRail, or a slower #rail experience.

@thomasconnor Not much highspeed rail here in the US, but taking the Amtrak from NYC to Montreal was a truly lovely ride.

@maxeddy Oh, that sounds lovely! I'm jealous of how many routes New York City gets.

@thomasconnor @maxeddy I took that route in January, and not only did I get to see some interesting old buildings and natural beauty as we traveled up the Hudson Valley, but in some places I could see areas of water that were frozen over and people were ice fishing. It was far more scenic than I expected.

@internic @maxeddy As great as HSR would be, there is something to be said for the slower trains... You can enjoy the scenery before it passes you by...
