The Second Life train community (railway/train creators, engineers, regular passengers) is yet another awesomely geeky subculture I've been meaning to write about for years, and this recent /SecondLife post is a good place to start: Created by Rydia Lacombe, behold this beautiful traveler's map to the railway systems of Second Life. (Get a free copy on the Marketplace here.)
And yes yes, you can not only ride these trains, you can BYOT them. (Bring your own train.)
As /Stellaaahhhh explains:
You can drive the train! There are even free ones on the mp. Then just find a rezz zone and put your train on the tracks. Someone picked me up in one of the Bellesaria neighborhoods just a few days ago.
Here's a Google Spreadsheet guide listing all the stations.
Next question: Is there also a train robbery community in SL, or does Red Dead Online get all that fun?
