I can't hear it, but enjoyed it immensely all the same:

Of course, it's a commercial for a Flemish television show, but what a commercial!

Thanks, Henry! I **really** enjoyed that. Outstanding. I'm giving a standing 'o on this one! (I'm going to steal this and put it up on another railfan website) [Smile]

Similar to the Nokia advert, filmed at Liverpool Street station in London: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ3d3KigPQM

There was something filmed in Buenos Aires' Retiro station a year or two ago but I can't find it nor remember what it was about, but it was very striking!

The No Pants Subway Ride 2009 had me wondering if we could get all the TrainWeb habitues together for a No Pants Acela Ride . . .

I don't know.....the fabric on the Acela seats might be kind of itchy.
