Canals and railways were quite complimentary with the latter often using routes first utilised by the canal builders. Also scenic stuff.

Très rare vidéo (indienne) d’un déraillement vu de la cabine du conducteur. On voit clairement le signal au rouge franchit et le butoir de faire défoncer. Impressionnant.

During the construction of an IKEA store on the outskirts of Rome, workers discovered a perfectly preserved section of an ancient Roman road. Instead of destroying the find or burying it under tons of concrete, the designers chose to modify the plans to integrate it in a respectful manner. As a result, the underground parking garage was built around the millennia-old road, transforming a parking area into a unique example of integrated archaeology.

The cargo vessel BBC TOKYO is navigating the narrow and controlled passage of the Welland Canal in Canada. Connecting the Great Lakes, this vital waterway offers a remarkable display of shiphandling, bridge clearances and precision navigation.

🍂 Ever wondered what we do about leaves on the line? Meet the Sand Rover. It's out across Scotland this autumn, scrubbing away crushed leaves and spreading sand to help trains keep moving. 🎥
