How realistic was the train? Is it possible to create a train that can run continuously without any contact with the outside world for nearly 2 decades?

Vintage steam railway photo dump

No.1952986 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Happy 20th Birthday 4chan. I traveled to Fremont, CA to meet up with some dear friends and family and found out that the the Niles Canyon Railway was doing a steam excursion to commemorate the Bronco Billy Film Festival where they were showcasing silent-era films that were shot in Bay Area at the turn of the century so I booked a last-minute ride aboard it.

Will dump my album and go over some history of the railroad and its equipment below.

Helmet

No.1946468 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
I just realized I need a helmet.
I've lost couple of pounds (due to food poisoning) and e-scooter suddenly started doing wheelies, and I thought about it... It is just a matter of time before i land on the back of my head and leave brain juice on the curb, and city will fine me for littering which i dont want.

What kind of things i've to look for? I think biggest danger is that back flip can be accelerated, and fact that on e-scooter head is much higher off the ground than on a bicycle.
Top speed is not much, around 30 kmh or so, but that doesn't really matter unless you slide off in the corner and hit a curb or smth.

escooter ebike repair thread

Is it so fucking hard for chinks NOT TO install shitty BMS that don't balance cells? It is just idk, 0.1 US dolla difference?
Also, why did they even lie? It says 10 AH on the battery heatshrink, while in reality it is 7.8 AH.

That $0.1 saved resulted in 4.22 - 3.85 V disbalance in cells. No fucking wonder it did only like 12 km.

Question??

I have a few questions as a non-Dutch person.
No idea why, but my feed constantly gets spammed with Urban planners.
> 1. Is this guy for real? Or is he paid for by the Dutch government to promote the country?
> 2. Is the country really that good?
> 3. Is these videos true or just marketing and lies?

I just watched the following video and thought: So what! Most countries have this. This is nothing special

Bike to E-Bike conversion

No.1950504 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Are E-Bike conversion kits worth it? Bought myself a nice normal bike (belt drive) a few months ago but now I moved to very hilly city (imagine like San Fransisco) where a normal bike is a pain in the ass.

What options do I have? I couldn't find any conversion kits that work with belt drives.
