Trains News Wire offers the latest in an occasional series of links to articles elsewhere on the internet that you might find worthwhile (or amusing):
— The BBC Music Magazine offers a different look at the impact of the Transcontinental Railroad: how it triggered an era that transformed classical music in the U.S.
— It’s now more about three weeks weeks old, but still worthwhile is a Los Angeles Times look at Mexico’s Maya Train project, its ongoing issues, and how opinions of the railroad often parallel how those offering the opinion feel about Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the now-departed Mexican president who pushed the project throughout his six years in office.
— And a quick read: Syndicated columnist Miss Manners — after years of dealing with issues regarding unwanted guests, wedding faux pas, and the like — finally gets around to a really crucial matter: behavior of those with video cameras on a heritage rail excursion.
