It is worth taking a ride on the train. I am glad I was able to do it, and hope to do it again one day. If you travel in the winter make sure to bundle up. By the way, I took a photo of the toilet. Happy trails! You are very welcome, Onnik! It is worth taking a ride on the train. I am glad I was able to do it, and hope to do it again one day. If you travel in the winter make sure to bundle up.

Poetic, atmospheric, wonderful description -- even as far as the toilet!

It stirs your imagination as you step into the past and present at the same time, as it moves along rocking you back and forth on wooden benches, as it glides along the tracks letting passengers on and off. Some are polite and considerate, some are rude and aggressive, most all are eager to get to their destinations. Stop after stop, the scenes change and people continue to get on and off. Warning! Do not open the toilet door! Even the bravest of the brave will shudder and gasp at the horrid sight and stench!
