What is missing?

[desotoman]

After you watch this 357.164161 mph run, did you notice anything missing?

An English translation?

[isiahstites]

A parachute...........safety workers keeping people from putting pennies on the track?

[k.h.]

No track sections, just continuus rails.

No one spilled their drinks.

Setting speed records makes lots of people smile.

Did they miss their 1-hour turn-around or what?

[McRat]

There should have been German Panzers following them?

[Dean Los Angeles]

Smooth, no sparks from the overhead, quiet.

No cow catcher?

[RichFox]

Didn't see any grade crossings

[penny]

on the bridge how does the cameraman turn so quickly to keep train in shot.

Looks to me they ran so fast they ran out of their paint job!         Crow.

[desotoman]

Everyone had great answers. LOL.

I just thought they made it look so casual. Some were standing on the ride, some were sitting. But I did not see anyone have any safety gear on. I would have thought they would have at least wore a seat belt on a record setting run.

Ever been on a train?  they drive like they are on rails 

[stratman59]

Hope that one stays on rails :lol:

[k.h.]

Took a German bullet train from Hamburg to Wuerzburg in '94, 180 mph, kinda' fun.  No seat belts.  But a few years later one left the track at speed.  Like a wreck on the Autobahn in a tin can.

I sure thought I saw some sparking where the cantilever touches/touched the wire.  But you're right -- no seat belts, no apparent stress on the faces of the "passengers".  And the engineer -- hey, he looked like the canary that swallowed the cat.  I think I'd feel pretty danged good if I were about to drive a train that fast.
