Man builds a personal railway around his house
October 11th, 2008 by James
This train fanatic built a railroad line around his house:
Called the Akeno Light Railway, it is the personal railway of its owner and creator, Mr. Nakano. Constructed mainly from junk parts, the railway only cost Nakano about $5,000 to built. It runs on an electric motor and it takes about a minute and a half for the train to make a full trip around the 45 meter long circle of 15 inch track.
