  1. 14:15 Yes. Exactly. A train runs on a different path to road travel. The train and the scenery it passes is the adventure. It's not the destination. As a pseudo-hippy in the late 70s/early 80s, walking less-trodden paths was my thing. I wanted to see what couldn't be seen from the window of a car. Trains became a small but important part of that journeying, like sitting in a caboose at night, travelling from Cairns to Mareeba up the Kuranda range in Australia. The route is a major tourist attraction today but we saw little besides town lights far below on the coastal plains on our slow journey up the range. But it was a unique experience very few have had the pleasure of enjoying.
