As kids, there always seems to be this fascination with trains. When we grow older, the fascination doesn’t ebb but it seems to intensify. Maybe it is more of a fascination of large machines, but either way, trains are cool and have an important place in history.

Watch this view of the newly resurrected train between Amman and Zarqa. Also, read this previous piece about the old Hijazi railroad. Its a wonderful short hike that is close to Amman.
