One of the coolest things Ive ever seen
(Obviously, the video creator thought so too, because they show the same scene 3 times)

I've been hearing about those things for years...didn't know they actually had any in active service. Just imagine if Amtrak ever got their hands on one of those. Can you picture a derailment at 250+mph?:D
