Hello,

heres something very interresting on Google Earth! Search for:

Khyber Train Crossing

and you will end up seeing the Khyber Pass Railway crossing the runway of Peshawar/Pakistan Intl Airport. The driver of the train has to stop there, walk to the tower, drink a cup of tea, get the permission to pass and then continue his journey.

Have fun,

Martin

Hard to believe there's actually a place where a train could run into a jet.

Imagine if it hits a 747. Now that would be something terrible.
