I'm sorry Justo, but I laughed too, must be our strange sense of humour. Did you have to walk all the way home or is your body buried alongside the track way out of town??....or were you simply doing another modification while it was on your mind?

Here an old video with my windcar in the night.
Then I leave other video, also at night, but in a dangerous route.

And the third and final part of the journey.

Steady Justo if your heading for Australia, they will get you, and put you on Mannus

much better to fly here, but i would be unsure of that at this moment.........

Then I'll go to Mannus. If that's your advice.
The above photos are from my sailboat made with 250 plastic bottles and waste items.
I will sail 200 km by a rushing river.
Coming

Thank you gibberjoe. It's a freight train line. Railway stations are abandoned, some occupied by people. I'll leave the waypoint arrival and departure so you can locate it in google earth.

33 01' 34'' S 60 41' 23'' O Departure

34 14' 28'' S 59 28' 32'' O Arrival

Someone else has similar thoughts regarding the use of tracks...



This one looks a little shakey...



I think Justo has got it right!

You're right, many people have worked on rail bike, I know that.
But no one explains how to cross a railway.
But you can only do with train wheels.
I did many tests.
I will show photos.
I even tried to blow up the railcar[: D][: D]

Well done Justo and well done to your country for the huge effort in constructing such a railroad through that country. But what now Justo, how are you going to top that trip, we can hardly wait. Did you freewheel back down the mountains to get back to base?. Regards...Wok
