wwII steam
Union Pacific Big Boy steam locomotive, the largest operating steam locomotive in the world. This absolute unit is 26 meters long and weighs 600 tons when including its tender. It came around in 1941 after other locomotives were unable to pull trains up steep slopes in the Wasatch Mountains on their own, requiring help from other locomotives. The 4-8-8-4 Big Boy, with its tractive effort of 135,375 lbf, could do it alone. 25 were built in total, and they traveled millions of miles moving materials crucial to the war effort

You can only lose with seat reservations in the German train
I booked a train to Germany. 2 hours before my train even started at itโs origin station, it was already announced that it will be delayed in the station where I need to change (6 hours from now).
I have no way to get the money for my seat reservation back, despite that the journey has not even started yet and despite me and the train company assuming right now, that Iโll miss the train.
Itโs an infuriating system and I hate the German train company.
I probably wouldnโt be able to wait and reserve a seat for the train that I can actually catch, because the trains are hopelessly overbooked. I can only hope, that someone misses the next train, that I have to take instead, just like I missed mine and find a free reserved seat there.
