looks great!

railway

very nice

mowing the grass has to be a dangerous job there

dropitlikeitshot,
Naw, they're bound to have a rail car with mower blades. :-)

Hardly GREEN when you have to MOW the parkway.

Meat....mowing is more green than pavement repairs....especially when we all switch to electric lawn mowers, and solar power....which is the only logical solution to the energy problems...I like it

how about planting native grasses that support wildlife rather than a non-native grass monoculture?

now you're just being an a$$hole

Wonder how many children get hit by trams while they're playing on the grass

Hey Ozrich, I thought the same. There are no gates etc..

This is beautiful. I love trains.

That's awesome!

Well here is the deal. The reason they do not need fences or gates is the simple fact that children in other countries are a lot more educated in safety and common sense. So they do not need to waste money on so called "Safety barriers" such as that. The simple fact is; their children are not stupid enough to play in a place where NO ONE ELSE IS PLAYING, for obvious reasons. I'm sure there are a few who get injured or die, but that is just natural selection via man's ingenuity. Something I believe, as an American, the good ol' US of A needs. Make room for the educated ones, or at least get everyone's frame of mind out of "Need a Quick Fix" to "prevent it from happening in the first place."

I'm sure the caring, attentive, responsible parents would also have a hand in the fact that they have no barriers. Also something other countries out number the US by at least 60% or so.

Overall I believe that planting grass on railway systems is a good idea, regardless of the type of grass. Any planted grass is better, and more aesthetic, than gravel. Oh and for peoples information, for every 200 sq. ft. of grass that is mowed, taking in to account the time between mowing, takes care of about three lawnmowers worth of emissions. so next time you want to argue how green this idea is; do the math before you argue. Though if your from the US, I understand completely and sympathize. This gov. does not spend much on education.

have you guys ever been to Europe?

they don't mow their lawns there! and if they do its to play soccer.

look at the pictures

yes i agree with all of you, screw Europe... i think that is the sentiment no?>?

mmmmmmmmm, you think so

dude thats nice..

świetne

great idea. great for making more oxygen!

looks awesome!

Does anyone know what town the picture no. 5 from the top is? It looks so nice.

i guess the tracks really are greener on the other side (of the atlantic)

I think that these small details make living in cities much nicer, and make people more aware of what they are missing
