就愛搭火車！All Aboard!
對某些人而言，沒有比火車更酷的了！For some people, there’s nothing better than a train!
如果讓你選擇搭火車或是坐飛機去旅行，你會選哪一個?
如果選火車，那麼你很有可能是個「鐵道迷」。
鐵道迷是指喜歡火車的人；他們因火車而開心，喜歡坐火車、談火車，並且替火車拍照。
鐵道迷滿腦子想的都是火車！
對大多數的鐵道迷來說，光是搭火車旅行就是一個足以讓人興奮的理由。
沒有什麼比看著窗外飛快掠過的風景更棒的了。
鐵道迷對於世上最令人為之震撼的鐵道旅遊路線如數家珍，並且嚮往有朝一日能親自前往一遊。
瑞士策馬特到達沃斯或聖莫里茲的「冰川快車」便是其中之一。
冰川快車婉蜒穿梭於高山美景之間；繞行曲折陡彎、穿過九十一條隧道，並且跨越二百九十一座橋梁。
另一段絕美鐵道旅遊路線，從阿德雷德北上到達爾文直接穿越澳洲心臟地帶。
這段二千九百七十九公里的行程直接穿越澳洲廣大內陸地區。
乘客得以望著一公里接著一公里的奇妙色彩及沙漠地形景致從眼前飛逝而過。
If given the choice of traveling by train or plane, which would you choose? If you choose the train, chances are you're a railfan. A railfan is someone who loves trains. They are delighted by trains and love to ride them, talk about them and photograph them. They have trains on the brain!
For most railfans, a journey by train is a reason to get excited. There's nothing better than gazing out the window at the scenery as it speeds by.
Railfans know about the world's most incredible train journeys and dream of taking them. Switzerland's Glacier Express from Zermatt to Davos or St. Moritz is one. It winds its way through mountain landscapes. It goes around tight curves and passes through 91 tunnels and over 291 bridges. Another incredible journey goes through the heart of Australia from Adelaide to Darwin. The 2979 km trip goes through Australia's vast outback. Passengers watch as kilometer after kilometer of amazing colors and desert terrain fly by.
