This is an intreresting video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YQy5ba50QM

Check out railroad #4, in the US, and see its track!! (The narrator calls it the "NS&W" despite ND&W being written in giant letters on one of the engines shown.)

Still in training.

Genius was somewhat less than that when it came to the voice over on the ND&W segment, as the caption on the segment showed ND&W.  As bad as the ND&W trackage is, telephoto lens makes it look even worse.

Never too old to have a happy childhood!
