"Heh... Heh..."

Shang Luo held his knees and gasped for air. Although he was dragged over, he didn't expect that he could run so fast. The other brocade guards were better, but they ran over with all their might, and they were all holding on to the handrails and panting.

The surrounding passengers glanced at them and then continued to look down at their books.

The hydraulic doors of the tram slammed shut behind them, and the sound of a catenary crackling could be heard overhead. Tram No. 1719 of the Metropolitan Railway's Chuansha Line departs on time.

Driving into the tunnel from the platform, the familiar smell wafted into Shang Luo's nose - it was the smell of soot, but it was lighter than when he was a child.

Until four years ago, the subway line in Yukyo was running with steam locomotives. However, after the civil power grid was put into operation, the "state-owned Yujing Railway" carried out the electrification transformation of the whole line for the first time, followed by the "Metropolitan Railway". After all, the city railway only transports people and seats, and does not need the steam engine to provide that much torque.

Running the subway with a steam locomotive is a bad idea that I don't know which living Hades came up with. The summer in the Yangtze River Delta is already hot, and the tunnel full of steam is simply a giant in-line steamer, and hundreds of people are always fainted by the steam and high temperature every summer.

The smell of coal still reverberates in the Metropolitan Railroad's lines. As a private rail transit operator, their view of line maintenance is somewhat different from that of the state-run railway, as long as it can be used.

"Ahem... The taste is really nostalgic. Lu Qianhu, how many stops shall we sit? ”

Lu Huaiyang glanced up at the route list: "From the airport liaison line to Chuansha Station, from the Huangpu River, and then to Songjiang North Station in Wusongkou, it takes about 30 minutes to arrive, and then transfer to the Beijing-Shanghai trunk line at the platform." Have you sat before? ”

"Nope. I remember when I went to San Francisco, there wasn't a line. ”

"Then you'll be an eye-opener."

...

"Songjiang North Station, arrived. Please transfer to the state-owned Beijing-Shanghai Main Line, Beijing-Shanghai Line, Suzhou-Shanghai Line and Metropolitan Wusong Line to get off at this station. ”

The conductor made an announcement on the intercom, and Shang Luo stood on the platform, with a silver metal wall in front of him.

"Lu Qianhu, where do we transfer?"

"It's here, it's here. Look up. ”

Shang Luo slowly raised his head - above the silver high wall, a cab appeared 8 meters in the air. The rear of the cab is written in three large characters in the standard pavilion style: "銀龍號".

The track width is 3 meters, the width of the car is 6 meters, and the height is 8 meters. The huge train stopped on the platform, the whole train was wrapped in a streamlined silver fairing, and white steam faintly emanated from the roof, which was the giant beast that was lurking in its minions. The carriages stretch back to 200 meters and there are five carriages, each 8 meters high and 6 meters wide. The locomotive at the front was so large that it was divided into two sections, the front and rear, which were connected to each other by pipelines.

This is the Yinlong high-speed train operating on the Beijing-Shanghai trunk line. On the 3-metre broad-gauge high-speed railway, the train is propelled by two 'gas generator steam engines', which can drive the 1,500-ton beast at a high speed of 223 kilometers per hour on seamless steel rails. The joints of each rail are welded seamlessly with dragon scale welding, ensuring that passengers in the two-storey, full-height carriage can pass their journey smoothly. After the opening of this line, the journey between Beijing and Shanghai was compressed to less than 2 hours.

"Let's go, get in the car." Lu Huaiyang finally relaxed a lot. When I got here, I was only half a step away from getting home.

Everything in Yukyo is well organized, like a train schedule. There will be no suddenly jammed engines, no bombs falling from the sky, and no superpowered criminals.

Life in Kinai has always been like this. When the outside world rises and falls, every day here is a peaceful time when the sun and the moon are bright. It doesn't take much effort, everyone can have a decent job and be a decent person.

Kinai is decent everywhere. As the Empire's latest masterpiece in the field of engineering, the Silver Dragon embodies the decency of Yujing everywhere. The high platform is level with the carriage, and passengers who get on the train do not need to climb the stairs to walk smoothly into the carriage. Bypassing the escalator upstairs, they entered the carriage on the first floor.

The 6-meter-wide carriage accommodates three rows of seats, each of which is a separate compartment. The tickets in the middle are slightly cheaper, and the boxes on either side have their own large windows.

Jin Yiwei, of course, is to buy a ticket in the middle. Even if it is reimbursement, it can be saved, and the funds in Weili are not much. They are travelling in groups, so buying a private room is a cheaper option.

"Here it is." Lu Huaiyang opened the door of the box and motioned for Shang Luo and Wen Yuan to enter.

"The others took their tickets and took their seats first. Then you can change it yourself if you want to, anyway, the box we bought. ”

He stood at the door and watched as the other brocade guards took their seats before he entered the door.

"Ahh

Sitting on the soft seat, Lu Huaiyang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Personal enjoyment wasn't too important to him, but the conditions along the way were simply harsh. On the Yangzhou side, he was also exhausted, and the investigation of Las Vegas was also stopped with the explosion of Las Vegas.

But he wasn't going to complain. It is precisely because of the Jinyi Guard and other people with responsibilities who stick to half the world that Yujing, the center of the world, can maintain the current peaceful and prosperous era.

"If you want to drink water, pour it yourself. Both cold and hot water are available. Are you hot? ”

"I'm fine. What about you? Shang Luo asked Wen Yuan next to him.

"I'm a little hot, so I'm turning on the air conditioner?"

"Then let's go. But is there any air conditioning on this train? Shang Luo was shocked, "I remember that there are air conditioners in department stores, hotels and cruise ships, and there are also on this train?" ”

"Don't talk about air conditioning, there's a movie theater above your head, and there's everything in this car." As he spoke, Wen Yuan opened a small brass shutter against the wall, and a cool breeze mixed with the scent of jasmine blew from the window.

"Ah!! Alive, alive. Wen Yuan opened the collar of his shirt against the wind outlet and let the cold wind pour in.

[This train is somewhat level... It has already been used for commercial operations, and Aurora's actions are really fast. 】

"You know that, too?"

[Constantinople has a Eurasian railway plan, which should be called the 'Great Western Railway' plan in Aurora. This line is supposed to be the experimental line of the Eurasian Railway, the cinema upstairs is for intercontinental travel, and the air conditioning is adapted to the climate of different zones. The same car in Rome was still in the garage, and both Alexander and Athens had their own plans, and they were still hiring people to deliver notes to the Senate. I think they're going to finish sooner or later, and most of them will end up using Aurora as before. Forget it, I've run over to surrender, so I don't care what they do. You sit down on the air conditioner, and I'll blow the air conditioner too. 】
