The way the train gets to its destination is by crossing the tracks. Usually the rails are placed in a place far from residential areas such as rice fields.
Or if it is close to a settlement, the distance has been calculated so as not to disturb the surroundings. But what happens if there is a train passing inside the apartment?
Or is it walking on the ocean?
Six Most Unique Railway Passes in the World .
1. Train that crosses the apartment
Chongqing is known as the most populous city in the world.
Architects and urban planners must be skilled in developing monorail routes in vital areas.
Finally, the idea emerged to build a train monorail line through the 19-storey apartment building.
Even though it is in an area of change, this route is considered strong and resistant to earthquakes.
2. The railroad passes through densely populated houses
The location is in the Hanoi area, Vietnam.
The density of houses in this area does not make the architects lose their will in creating the railroad track.
The distance between the railroad and the change area is only a few meters.
When the train passes, the shop and market area should close for a moment and let the train pass.
After that, it just opened again.
3. A train that passes through the longest rail tunnel in the world
The world's longest rail tunnel opened officially in Switzerland in 2016, after nearly two decades of construction.
The 57 km (35 mi) Gotthard base tunnel provides a high-speed rail line under the Swiss Alps between northern and southern Europe.
The tunnel has surpassed the Japanese Seology rail tunnel by 53.9 km, the longest in the world and pushed the Chunnel 50.5 km, connecting England and France, in third place.
4. A train crossing the airport runway
Gisborne is a regional airport located on the western outskirts of Gisborne, New Zealand.
It is known as an airport in the world that has a railroad that intersects the runway.
The airport covers 160 hectares with three grass runways and one main runway which the Palmerston North-Gisborne subway runs through.
The airport also has one terminal with two asphalt gates.
One of the more interesting aspects of railroad tracks?
When passing just above the runway, the train must stop to get permission from air traffic control to cross and continue down the track.
5. The train that runs along the Brusio Bridge
Brusio is a single line of nine spiral railway lines located in Brusio, in the Canton of Graubünden, Switzerland.
The spiral track is 110 meters long, has a horizontal curvature of 70 meters, a longitudinal slope of 7%, and nine spans of 10 meters each.
6. A train passing over the sea
This train line is unique because it passes over the sea.
Hindenburgdamm is an 11 km long trail connecting the Frisian North Sylvina Island to the Schleswig-Holstein mainland, Germany.
Opened in 1927 this line is primarily used for rail transportation.
Strong currents and tides become a challenge for this train when crossing the ocean.
