It's sad to see the lack of maintenance on those tracks since they are pretty important in the moving of materials and goods from manufacturers and distributors.
The worst thing from my view only, is that I would not trust taking a scenic train ride with miz micro and enjoy the clacking sound of the tracks and looking at the scenery as we roll along. As a kid we took the train from Union Terminal in Cincinnati to Reading, Pennsylvania to go visit with my mother's sister and my cousins. It was a great ride and trip. I would like to do something like that again but with all the derailments I don't think it would be a good idea..
