It's too bad that you can't ride in the engine's cab.

Oh, THAT'S not so bad! I need to remember to trick my brother into riding it with me next time we go to Florida. Thanks for providing the statistics!

@4JEEN But still, the maximum speed is 36 mph.

@2brothersvideos His statistics are quite accurate. You can sit 3 people per row on BTMR. So the maximum can be 45 people.

[2brothersvideos]

There are only 30 people per car, 6 people per car, 5 cars per train. The maximum speed is 36 mph. Your statistics are wrong.

Nice, what kind of camera do you use?
