I found this picture on Wikimedia Commons and thought it was really cool. I really think they should hold on for dear life, but they seem unconcerned.
This reminds me of old movies and TV shows where people travel in time, and there's always a great amount of colors and shapes or lines flying by.
I think I might pass on this ride, especially if I was one of the people hanging on outside.

I saw them a long time ago, but I'm not sure either.

@misunderstood_zombie More than the law we should wear it for personal safety and in turn community safety.

@msdivkar I agree, but I just like them, but law or not I would still wear them.

I think people are tired of masks, I know I am, but still now it's a law and we must wear them when we go out.

Oh dear, it looks crowded for sure. You're right the background looks like they're time traveling. Cool image

Yes, it is really old, and I think they keep them around for the tourists.

Some people can't get rid of old habits.

@piyushbhatia1 I wondered what you meant also. I bet they're not running right now.

I think that's an adventure I might want to avoid.

I thought people could, but maybe not, especially kids.

@misunderstood_zombie I had a quick look online and technically the one in LA and the Peak in Hong Kong are railways, so now I know!

I didn't know they had them in LA. I wish we had them in the DFW area.

I think those are so cool. If the speed is not too fast no need to stop just jump on and off at will. Free transportation in crowded cities?

I don't think it's free but it's very cool.
