Vaping In Transports

Is vaping in bus / metro / trains illegal ? ive seen some kids vaping and blowing the smoke in their hoodies or sometimes keeping the smoke in their lungs until it becomes barely visible. Are there like smoke detectors on them ?

Since there's already a thread about Pacific Electric, I think I'd dedicate one to its younger Northern brother.

Holiday Trains thread

No.2061791 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
It's the most wonderful time of the year, and you know what that means? Time for heritage railways everywhere to shake us down for more money with some Christmas-themed excursions.

Post anything holiday trains related. Can be your local Polar Express, Christmas-themed model trains, Rule 34 of Santa Claus shoving a wooden train up his ass. You name it.

I'll start off with Niles Canyon Railway's Train of Lights, which I had the privilege of riding in first class of earlier today.

Amtrak's Heritage Fleet got killed by A FUCKING TOILET

>be random fisherman on Florida's St. Johns River in 1980
>be on your comfy boat, catching some catfish as your Southern ancestors have been doing for generations
>be anchored next to the local train trestle
>Amtrak's Silver Meteor service passes by as it does every day
>think nothing of it, continue fishing
>suddenly a steaming fat pile of shit lads right on your fucking head
>before you even have time to react to being covered in more excrement than an Indian swimming in the Ganges, the Silver Meteor disappears into the distance
>go straight to the town sheriff to file a complaint
>it turns out that Amtrak's Budd and Pullman-built rolling stock that was inherited from other railroads upon nationalization, are all equipped with direct-dump-on-the-tracks toilets that will literally dump piss and shit on the fucking tracks at high speed; and that this is a practice dating all the way back to the first passenger trains that has essentially remained unchanged in over 150 years
>judge is no more amused than you are, win the resulting lawsuit easily
>literal legal shitstorm ensues as now Amtrak is on the hook for whenever someone gets splattered by human waste from one of their trains
>outfitting the entire Heritage Fleet with retention tanks that are periodically emptied at stations turns out to be too expensive, so most of the fleet is sent straight to the scrapyards as soon as they can be replaced
>incoming Amfleet, Viewliner and Superliner cars all have to be redesigned from the ground-up to use retention tanks
>thus the era of the classical American streamliner comes to an abrupt end
>all because of a fucking toilet

You can't make this shit up.
