In 42 minutes, you can get from…

1. New York City to Tarrytown, which Washington Irving made famous in 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow'
2. Paris to the Loire Valley to enjoy some wine.
3. Munich to Kloster Andechs to enjoy some powerful beer. (Take a designated driver. We lie not: we once had to roll a student down the hill to the train station after two of those powerful steins.)
4. Berlin to Köpenick, where a clever ex-con once scammed the city by pretending to be a military officer. (See Guide Entry.)
5. Downtown Moscow to the famed 'Bunker 42', where you can learn to stop worrying and love the Cold War.
6. Madrid to fabled Toledo (though if you were trying to get to Ohio, it will take longer).
7. One end of the ancient city of Jerusalem to the other by light rail. Think Biblical thoughts.
8. The bottom of Mount Wa(r)shington to the top, take pictures, and come back down again in beautiful downtown Pittsburgh.
9. Los Angeles to San Francisco (actual time spent in the air).
10. London to Beijing travelling by gravity train.

All aboard the gravity train!
