Man-Made railroads

[heavens-champion 1,905]

Do people still make railroads the old-fashioned way, or is that impractical, now?

Aren't all railroads man made? I never heard of any concurring naturally by themselves.

I meant do people still build railroads with hammers?

As railroad expert I don't think so 

Since new machines that fix tracks

The light rail line I use al the time (The Riverline) has a special track repair train car. I've seen it. (Couldn't find a picture!) My ride takes me past their maintenance yard. Tomorrow I'll be riding the Patco High Speed line. I like it. It's an electric train. Nice smooth ride.

This is The Riverline. A great and inexpensive way to travel up and down the Delaware river corridor. 

 

This is the Patco High Speed Line. It's a fast and easy way to run on into Philadelphia Pa from New Jersey.

It isn't the same one, but here is a track repair train.

I doubt railroads are man-made in the USA, with how advanced technology has become.

Trains are dying here in Sweden. Being replaced by faster ways of traveling. So they will definitely not be made by man, or anything.
