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 ?

Bit of a long one but I found it interesting to watch.

Almost two years ago, I put up a thread about Dreamstar Lines, a company aiming to reinvigorate private passenger rail in the US with an overnight service between Los Angeles and San Francisco, which has been absent since the discontinuation of Southern Pacific's Lark service in 1968. Today, I've come to bring you some updates

>restored Bilevel cars (either Santa Fe Hi-Levels or retired Amtrak Superliners) will be used at first, but there planes to replace them long-term with modern purpose-built cars
>BMW subsidiary Designworks, has been contracted to design the car interiors, drawing heavily from Art Deco (often considered the zenith of American passenger rails service)
>there are now four class, family, bedroom, suite, and standard, the latter will be the highest class despite its name
>amenities will include both late-night dining in a dedicated bar car as well as room-to-room breakfast service
>rather than purchase surplus Amtrak or Caltrans motive power, or even buying Simens Chargers, ZELTECH and HyOrc have been contracted to design custom locomotives using the Rankine-cycle for the service in order to comply with California emissions requirements
>start of service has been pushed back to 2026 at the earliest (shocker), with the aim of launching in time for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles

The company website's even gotten an overhaul recently, albeit still full of AI-slop

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.

>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.
