Trains don't have to serve just as a means of transport between given places. An extraordinary railway, located in Australia, provides passengers with unforgettable experiences. "The best experience ever" - we read in the comments.
Netizens were in shock when they saw the video material, published by Kireilia on TikTok. A short clip, in which a woman talks about the steepest railroad in the world, was watched by 1.8 million users.
The steepest railway
The steepest scenic railway, Scenic Railway, is located in the Blue Mountains in New South Wales, Australia, on the western outskirts of popular Sydney, and descends into the Jamison Valley. "It's one of the most picturesque attractions in the world," admitted the TikToker.
The route was originally built at the end of the 19th century to serve the Katoomba coal mine. It was transformed into a tourist attraction in 2019 - It's really strong! We feel like we're flying because our legs are in the air - a woman describes the descent.
During the ride, the railway provides excitement not only through the steep inclination of the tracks, ranging from 52 to 64 degrees but also due to the fact that one travels through a rocky tunnel, which is exceptionally dark. - We're a bit scared, but after a moment we can see light. The views are astonishing - further reports Kireilia.
Internet users surprised
Many comments appeared under the video shared on TikTok. Most internet users are surprised that such a place exists. Some shared their positive memories from train rides, while others began to dream that they also want to take advantage of the attraction.
"The best experience in history", "I want to go there with my friends", "I was there in high school, back then the doors weren't so closed off" - we read in the comments.
On the other hand, there are people who would never dare to get on such a train. "My claustrophobia would immediately say no", "I would have a panic attack", "You would never see me in there," "I remember hysterically crying on a field trip just so I didn't have to go there" - write internet users.
