πŸš‡ Why you shouldn’t hang out at the end of railway tunnels πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡
@dmoser because fucking dangerous and trespassing of railway infrastructure, which will get one arrested.
@dmoser thats why our trains are delayed, because of all the giant cats 😁
@dmoser do you have the timetable for the catline ? ... Giggles
@dmoser was completely expecting Henry or Gordon. this is better. now wondering why there isn't a Ghibli version of "cat caboose" Γ  la "cat bus".

@dmoser @geoglyphentropy This is from the account of Mittens the train cat, on Twitter as @[email protected] by @[email protected].
@kevinteljeur @dmoser @geoglyphentropy I guess I'll never understand what's so challenging about citing the original source when you find interesting material you'd like to share.

@dmoser
Ok i totally did not expect that
@dmoser some people just said too much in replies. Just watch the vid.
@dmoser I don't know about you, but this seems like a really good reason to hang out by railway tunnels!
@dmoser Is it bad I knew exactly what was going to happen before I even pressed play?
@dmoser πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ‘πŸ˜»
@dmoser Because the results could be catastrophic.
@dmoser The real reason Amtrak and NJ Transit experience so many problems with the Hudson River tunnels.
@dmoser I thought this was a Thomas the Tank Engine meme.
@dmoser Wow they really do come out of nowhere don't they?
@dmoser It's important that if there are any cats watching. Don't try that at home!
@dmoser , too funny, had to watch it again.
Thanks.
@dmoser I needed that this morning. Endless thanks.
@dmoser @Esssie31 That might have been taken in this diorama cat cafe: https://youtu.be/-m-1FOSGnqA

@heinragas @dmoser grappig! Kende het niet. Een soort asiel ook?
@Esssie31 @dmoser Yup. AFAIK it used to be a ramen restaurant with a train diorama, but it was failing to attract customers. Then one night the owner took in a stray cat, and it turned into a hit. Now it's a cat shelter too, and they care of the strays and adopt them out.
@dmoser I wish we lived in a world where giant house cats existed casually like this.

@dmoser Video Description: A steady shot of a railroad tunnel with a pair of stone arches set into a grassy hill, two tracks going through each. The left arch is wider, with its tracks set farther apart.

There are mechanical noises in the background, and then in the left tunnel a white patch emerges right in the center of the darkness, where there are no tracks, followed by two white patches on the ground on either side.

The patches eventually resolve into a cat, and it becomes apparent that this is a model railroad. A black and white cat, whose head barely fits through the tunnel, crawls their way out of the tunnel then stands on the tracks, with just their hind legs and underbelly visible.

While the cat is standing there, a blue and yellow traincar enters the screen. It honks, at which the cat visibly flinches, but stays on the left-hand tracks. The traincar disappears into the right-hand archway, on the track nearer to the cat.

After a beat, the cat then climbs up and away over the hill, off the upper-left corner of the screen.

@dmoser Would you mind editing your post to add this description to the video (without the "video description" intro)? It should be fairly easy with the recent updates, and our visually impaired friends deserve this cuteness as well πŸ˜„
@dmoser Ahhhh I didn't notice until going back to write a video description, but the cat definitely flinches (but holds their ground) when the train honks. So cute!!
@dmoser Genius! Beware Giant Cats who insist no tunnel is too small.

@dmoser

OMG, that is hilarious! I totally thought it was a real tunnel!

@dmoser @stevestreza I’d want to hang out there! πŸ˜‚
@dmoser i thought there was gonna be a jumpscare
