According to #DiscoveryUK, the longest and heaviest #train ever rolling on our planet was a 682-car train powered by eight locomotives in #Australia. Its total length was 7,353 meters and the weight accumulated to 99,732.1 tons. The train transported iron ore for mining company #BHPBilliton (now #BHP).

I don't understand how people can so eagerly work for the #murderer and brutal #dictator, #MohammedBinSalman.
The basic idea of #NEOM's #TheLine #VerticalCity project seems radical in the best way, and overly optimistic.
The external mirrored walls may be the first point of failure. Unless there's sufficient openings under the project, blocking the desert may be the second.
