Beautiful pictures. They even have express tracks which are rare for most railroads. Do you have any photos of the trains?

Thank you for the pictures, Yacov.

I lived in an area with similar climate and landscape. The color of the soil, even the color of the air is very dear to me.

The new trend everywhere is to place a mall and food court around train stations, which is a pretty good idea because it makes them easier to get to without a car.
