this post has breached containment and my notifs have been brutally murdered
I've gotten over 1100 notifs from this post...

Sheldon@pharmafemboy also what happens when you put Duke Ellington fans in charge of anything.
Estarriol, Terrorist DragonTr7e but the on board music is cool.

I solemnly vow to boost this photo of a triangular "Toblerone" train every time it shows up in my timeline!
Now can someone pleez tell me where this photo was taken?

@Guillotine_Jones apparently it's a photoshopped Japanese train
@legionsofbob
I was so hoping it was Swiss, Bob, that I didn't even suspect PhotoShop!

@Guillotine_Jones yeah, I was a little disappointed too 😅
mei@Guillotine_Jones @pharmafemboy unfortunately, it is an edit. here's the original picture
@mei
THIS train doesn't look anything like a Toblerone, and therefore doesn't make me think of Switzerland at all, Mei.
Thank YOU for providing the source image!
(Not your fault, but my dream of this triangular train being real is gone. It was a nice dream while it lasted.
Big propz to whoever did the PhotoShopping!)

I had the same feeling looking at this train 😹
It is nice that it is at least a photoshopped image (I can’t believe I’m saying this 😹)

@Guillotine_Jones @pharmafemboy The question of where this was taken *is* interesting, though. With reverse image search, I managed to track down a different photo of similar train with the same destination: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Kintetsu172_HokuseiLine_Ohda_19901007.jpg
So the destination sign is 西桑名, or Nishi-Kuwana Station. I do wonder where on that route it sits...

@Guillotine_Jones @pharmafemboy I found a video of the driver's view of the entire line. I watched it, but no particular moment jumped out at me as the place where the photo was taken. Maybe I don't have a good eye for this. Also the photo might be older than the video (i found some 2016 captures of the photo in the wayback machine, while the video is from 2018), so the landscape might've changed a bit.

Andrew@mei @Guillotine_Jones @pharmafemboy …I guess I just kinda assumed it was Swiss from the toblerone association
an actual bus
jandi@pharmafemboy I hope Alpszilla doesn't see it.

Måns Almered@waspfactory @pharmafemboy 100% photoshop and fake since 8 years?
NO. This train does not exist.
YES. Its a funny picture from the person who did the photoshop session.

sethman@pharmafemboy hhhh se couit
carstenraddatz@pharmafemboy Gone is the old explainer that it is a mining train or similar. Thank all you for researching this!
Kinda sad no one did make a Thomas the Tank Engine version tho.
@pharmafemboy
I would love to know what caused them to design those cars that way.

Airplanista 🇺🇦@pharmafemboy The cybertruck of trains? Looks like it was drawn by a 5YO child. But your "Toblerail" header is certainly valid.
ifrauding@pharmafemboy Trainlerole?
François @JuraA frame house on wheels. I would not to seat at the window :)
Salva@pharmafemboy just a fake.
Princess Serena Star ✨@pharmafemboy holy fuck nearly 1,000 reactions

@pharmafemboy huh I even went to remote instance. only looked at the "favorites" count
Androcat@pharmafemboy
Brilliant.
Also: Reminder, Toblerone is owned by a subsidiary of a company that chooses to do business in Russia.
So, don't eat toblerone on the toblerail.
Krazov@pharmafemboy Long time no see.
