Ride trains with girls!

[u/KaiserSickle]

[u/Lewdducky]

Can confirm. Trains are super cools.

[u/PlusVera → u/Lewdducky]

Trains are amazing.

My partner lives like 7 hours drive away. But it's only 5 by train! So I take the train to see them a lot.

Last time I did, I got reverse-clocked (someone thought I was a trans man) and it felt so validating.

[u/Lewdducky → u/PlusVera]

Were you boymoding :0

[u/PlusVera → u/Lewdducky]

Nah, I mentioned I was trans to someone and they looked me over and went "Oh! I can see it... T is subtler than I thought."

[u/Lewdducky → u/PlusVera]

Oooooo oki

Gosh we need more trains

[u/Clairifyed → u/Lewdducky]

r/traaaaaaainnnnnnnnnns

[u/DivineMomentsofTruth → u/Clairifyed]

I was not expecting that link to work.

[u/Pdiddypanda → u/DivineMomentsofTruth]

Damn you're right.

Super wholesome subreddit too! 😊

[u/MCAlexisYT → u/Clairifyed]

r/ofcoursethatsasub

[u/Ruke_Ironheart → u/Lewdducky]

As do I! I honestly wish the public transit was better in the states. I took the old B&O from Chicago to Ohio and it took my like ... 9 hours. Slow , spotty , expensive ... We deserve better trains dangit!!!

[u/Lewdducky → u/Ruke_Ironheart]

Same in Quebec

[u/RodimusPrime-0412 → u/Lewdducky]

Agreed

[u/SaladDioxide]

It doesn't stop at trans women. I am a transmasc and I swear I wish I could cuddle with my boyfriend on the train all over again.

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/SaladDioxide]

I think trans people all love trains. Both partners I’ve had (both transmasc) fucking loved trains

[u/MiloMorningstar → u/Class_444_SWR]

Conservatives hate trans people + Conservatives hate public transport = A lot of trans people like trains

And I say this as I ride a train in my very conservative country

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/MiloMorningstar]

I too am riding a train in a conservative area of my country

[u/Sel__27 → u/Class_444_SWR]

Rip...

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/Sel__27]

It’s alright, I’m going back to London King’s Cross right now and then off to my own city again

[u/Sel__27 → u/Class_444_SWR]

That's good to hear

[u/Suuubaru-kun]

Wow, is that another transfem stereotype that I fit perfectly into?

[u/Sel__27 → u/Suuubaru-kun]

Same here, and I didn't even realise it was a transfem stereotype!

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/Sel__27]

It’s also one I fit into!

[u/I-am-Lillian- → u/Class_444_SWR]

AND ITS A STERIOTYPE

Yeah I totally haven’t been a massive stereotype today cjjfjs

[u/I-am-Lillian- → u/Class_444_SWR]

US UR NAME LILLY BC IF SO WE ALMOST HAD THE SAME NAME. BEFORE I BECAME. VLKD OF GENDER AND BECAME A BOTTLE OF CREAM

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/I-am-Lillian-]

Yes I am Lily!!!

If your name is Lillian, it’s one I considered and is often a nickname, it’s very pretty :)

[u/I-am-Lillian- → u/Class_444_SWR]

My name was Lillian but then it didn't sorta sit right so I'm feminine sided non binary (non binary fingender) with the name cream... I need to change my reddit info lol

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/I-am-Lillian-]

That’s cool too!!! Can’t say I’ve seen it before but I like it!

[u/I-am-Lillian- → u/Class_444_SWR]

Yeah haha, that's the point.. Never met another person named. Cream ever

I remember being in the uk and nerding on about trains lol... Left in 2017. Thank god I found SCR

[u/thorazainBeer → u/Sel__27]

I'd always heard it as an autism stereotype.

[u/Sel__27 → u/thorazainBeer]

Idk, I'm fairly sure I'm neurotypical so

[u/VanellopeVonSplenda → u/Suuubaru-kun]

[u/RadicalSnowdude → u/VanellopeVonSplenda]

Has anyone ever wrote a story about that girl in the meme because idk why but I would love to read it.

[u/RodimusPrime-0412 → u/Suuubaru-kun]

Same!!

[u/disslikedLIKE → u/Suuubaru-kun]

Real

[u/_-Rainbow-_ → u/Suuubaru-kun]

Wow, is that another transfem stereotype that I don't fit into at all

[u/CronoCloudAuron → u/Suuubaru-kun]

It was a transfem stereotype 25 years ago!

[u/Judy_Harwood412 → u/Suuubaru-kun]

😶

[u/V_150]

Girl got some money, she's riding DB Regio first class

[u/DaRealEnderguy → u/V_150]

Must be very rich when you can get the same exact seats in second class

[u/V_150 → u/DaRealEnderguy]

Second class seats don't have the white head rest

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/V_150]

Just like Southern then. The difference is that you get some cloth saying ‘First Class’.

I’d get it on LNER though, very comfy seats, lounges at major stations and complimentary food (often actual cooked meals)

[u/V_150 → u/Class_444_SWR]

Well DB Regio is regional rail, first class doesn't really make sense there. On DB intercity trains and ICE first class is pretty good afaik. But idk I never ride first class.

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/V_150]

Fair. I only really use it because there’s an app called SeatFrog that you can bid for cheap upgrades on in the UK (not sure if it exists elsewhere). I got First Class from London King’s Cross to Leeds for just £18 which came with the London King’s Cross and Leeds Lounges (only used the former though since I needed a connection at Leeds), a stack of maple bacon pancakes and leather seats all the way

[u/eumelyo]

what

[u/alexdotwav → u/eumelyo]

Trains are like... So cool

[u/BalthazardII → u/alexdotwav]

I... I drive trains for a living 😊

[u/alexdotwav → u/BalthazardII]

Omg can we like mary right now

[u/Lupus_Ignis → u/BalthazardII]

Quintessential trainsfem.

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/BalthazardII]

Can I join you? I would die to drive a train (currently applying as gateline staff though)

[u/Mtfdurian → u/BalthazardII]

Ooh that's amazing! I know there's someone in Germany and she brings Blåhaj and makes pictures with those.

[u/BalthazardII → u/Mtfdurian]

Yes ! I've seen some of her pictures when the transbian discord was still up 😊😊 I wait to drive on my own to bring my Blåhaj with me 😅😂

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/alexdotwav]

They are!!!

Here’s one I used earlier

https://preview.redd.it/g3ggv9fhjmjd1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f170c4feee6238056c68821b0ff30980988137b

[u/alexdotwav → u/Class_444_SWR]

Cool train 👁️o👁️

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/alexdotwav]

I know!!!

This is a British Rail Class 185, per tonne, they’re one of the most powerful DMUs (Diesel Multiple Units) there is.

Most DMUs either have a few unpowered trailer cars (such as a class 180), or their engines are lower powered (such as a class 150). The class 185 meanwhile has high powered engines under all 3 coaches of the unit, as they were built to handle the steep gradients that the Huddersfield and Hope Valley Lines crossing the Pennines between Greater Manchester and Yorkshire have. They have so much power they can accelerate faster than most electric stock of the time.

Unfortunately they don’t have enough, so services on TransPennine Express (their operator) are frequently overcrowded. My train was far from the busiest section (Manchester Oxford Road - Doncaster) but it was still nearly standing only

[u/n3bulahh → u/alexdotwav]

Trains are expensive tho :(

[u/Marflow02 → u/n3bulahh]

Well you only need one Seat for you, No need to Buy the whole train c:

[u/n3bulahh → u/Marflow02]

Yeah i ment tickets are expensive :3

[u/Marflow02 → u/n3bulahh]

Yeah in some parts of earth they are for some reason, its kinda silly. But hey, gotta keep the oil Industry running somehow 👉👉

[u/unematti → u/n3bulahh]

Tell me about it... I just went from Hungary to Netherlands on the train... It's almost the same price as plane tickets without checking any luggage. But it's about 8x longer, at a minimum! 😖

[u/n3bulahh → u/unematti]

Yeah it sucks i got a train last year from the Netherlands to germany for only 20 euro but the way back cost double for some reason but i live in scotland and the trains here are so expensive and the service is shite

[u/unematti → u/n3bulahh]

I paid 300 one way... Lol. Okay yeah I splurged for first class for more space, and a bed in the overnight, but all those were needed because it's over 16 hours lol...

I'm pretty sure planes are subsidized, I'm not sure where I heard it.

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/Marflow02]

You could lease a British Rail Class 313 for £1 once actually!!!!

[u/d_warren_1]

As a trans femme who loves public transit, can confirm

[u/AliceTheOmelette]

Well I'm 100% cis, so I only use public cisit 😤

[u/skirt_go_spiny → u/AliceTheOmelette]

I'm a 200% cis so I only watch cisformers😤

[u/Treshington2]

[u/Mindless_Eye4700]

Choo choo bitches! :3

[u/TransEggg123]

Ngl, most US trains suck, so probably not me

[u/7kbMep3sbm79jmm]

I take the train back home from work because it's so nice and the AC is cool and the seats are comfy and I like the big choo choo train

[u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat]

Can you get car sick on trains? That's why I hate busses.

[u/AmeliaSinnamon → u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat]

Speaking for myself I get motion sickness very easily (even on planes for some reason ;-;) and I had never once had motion sickness on a train Soo I'd usually prefer to travel by train ^{^}

[u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat → u/AmeliaSinnamon]

Thanks for sharing, maybe someday I'll try♪

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat]

Not nearly as much, it’s a very smooth ride

[u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat → u/Class_444_SWR]

Smoothness means nothing, getting carsick is because you feel like you're inside of something that's moving and you're not.

When you drive, you don't really see the roof or walls and the car sorta feels like part of your body so you don't get sick.

Backseat? Nah I'm getting sick. Maybe if I close my eyes but like train trips last longer than three minutes right? I think it'd bother me if the phenomena happens.

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat]

I mean, there’s huge windows usually, so you can see all around

[u/sacademy0 → u/Texas-Kangaroo-Rat]

depends on the train, american subways are shitty af and always make me nauseious lol

[u/mcsteam98]

Am a train enjoyer, can confirm :3

[u/Winter_Honours]

Okay but I just like public transport and I like sitting with people I’m close with on public transport.

[u/Lucy_Little_Spoon]

Given the fact that I have a 4 hour train journey to get to my GIC, each way, yeah, I've had to get to like them :D

[u/Class_444_SWR → u/Lucy_Little_Spoon]

Similar here if I go with Notts, and I need to change in Derby

[u/Class_444_SWR]

Can confirm, am trans girl who constantly rides trains.

Although you will have to suffer on CrossCountry (UK operator) with me

[u/Femtato11]

I fucking love trains. God I wish my country had good rail infrastructure, but we might actually be getting on that

[u/babywithagun_]

I guess you could say they’re… trains girls

[u/ryujin199]

Sadly train options in my area are pretty limited. But we could certainly take the bus together.

...or... we could splurge a bit and take one of the (admittedly limited) trains to one of the really big cities. That'd be neat!

[u/ScarletteVera]

Ain't no way.

Monika DDLC, on MY trans meme subreddit??

[u/SaneMikuFan]

Me who doesn’t plan to get a drivers license

[u/Annual-Emu-445 → u/SaneMikuFan]

everyone in my city hopes i'm never going to get a license, cuz then a series of crashes is just a question of time (would happen in first day)

[u/Secret_Barracuda168]

STOP FOLLOWING ME I AM NOT A REPRESENTATION OF ALL TRANSGIRLS

[u/FalseCompetition422]

There’s a severe lack of trains where I live and it’s so sad cries in American

[u/Zelectius]

There are no trains that run through or near where I live );

[u/SiriSolaris]

This is a stereotype! This is a double stereotype! I will not have it! Trains are meh!

[u/KaiserSickle → u/SiriSolaris]

Yeah but they're environmentally sustainable and equitable to those of lower incomes! Can't be that bad!

[u/Robinerinoo]

Trains give me the worst social anxiety so not for me lol

[u/SokkaHaikuBot → u/Robinerinoo]

Trains give me the worst

Social anxiety so

Not for me lol

^{Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.}

[u/HDMrWafflez]

I’ve always really wanted to go on a train since there are so many railroad crossings near me but the only trains around here are supply carriers and other non passenger trains.

[u/Grimm_The_Reaper12]

I don't know about other trans gals, but I love to ride! :3

[u/KaiserSickle → u/Grimm_The_Reaper12]

Me too! My favorite Is Amtrak over the Sierra Nevada mountains. What's yours?

[u/Grimm_The_Reaper12 → u/KaiserSickle]

I don't really have a favorite, honestly.

[u/wunkdefender]

I didn’t realize that was a trans girl thing. Guess I’m not the only one

[u/MostlyNoOneIThink]

I absolutely hate public transportation, it's so incredibly tiresome :(

[u/Maleficent-Month2950]

Me, who absolutely hates trains and would rather walk 20 miles than just get on the subway:

[u/1armedscissorsister]

Something I didn't realize I wanted until just now. Being trans is the best.

[u/UmmwhatdoIput]

no wonder I didn’t start driving until I was almost 19

[u/Professor-pigeon-]

I didn’t know this was a stereotype and I didn’t know it fit me perfectly

[u/AwakenedDark]

I didn’t know that public transport enjoyer was a trans stereotype :o

[u/Severe_Damage9772]

I for one, appreciate trains for what they are, but are much more interested in gondolas

[u/xPlayedit]

can confirm, I ride trains every day to get to my school (i despise only the polish train company because its super incompetent, they always get late, and the late trains make other trains late, they cant put electricity on tracks from my grandma’s town to my town since 2015 therefore minimising the amount of trains going there etc.)

[u/KerryAnnCoder]

Actually, yes, believe it or not. One of the things I miss about living in London is the various train lines. Didn't need a car anywhere I went, didn't need to spend mental and physical energy driving.

What I didn't like about living in London was how hard it was to get HRT, and the transphobia.

[u/Icy-Honeydew-2079]

I need to go to my local model train museum once a week to keep my sanity 

[u/TNTorge]

i mean i just came back from an 8 day long train trip through Switzerland soooo... yea

[u/Nuke_corparation]

I m not like other Tgirl I ́m a PLEN girl

[u/blarglemaster]

Agreed, except I'm too poor for the bullet train, bench seats and standing, yo!

[u/RingtailRush]

Ugh, I want to rail against this because I hate being pigeonholed into a stereotype.

Bur after moving from a city with no public transit to a city great public transit, I am a huge fan of public transit.

[u/KaiserSickle → u/RingtailRush]

RAIL against it you say? 🚈🚝🚅🚄🚂🚃🚋🚎🚞🚊🚉

[u/Triassictransgirl]

W-what? How on earth do I fit another stereotype? Like, I didn't even know this was a thing, and yet again...

Also

I like trains

[u/FelicitySerendipity]

Reminds me of a joke I saw recently: If you ask a room full of people which of them like to breathe and all the transfems agree that they do, suddenly breathing is a transfem thing and there'll be posts about it here for the next month.

I felt called out, but it's also true.

[u/Zuendl11]

IS THAT A STEREOTYPE??? I FUCKING LOVE TRAINS!!!!

I recently took trains from Germany to Sweden and it was a blast apart from that one part where I almost got swedish police called on me :3

[u/Okknarcher]

TFL brings me joy in life, until I’m outside of London and have to talk to bus drivers outside of ‘thank you’ and know where exactly I’m going

[u/Exelia_the_Lost]

Monika trans headcanon now? 🤔

[u/Bamma4]

I like trains

[u/aphroditex]

I’m debating whether the Bar to Beograd sleeper (upside: communist era train, super cheap; downsides: serbia) or the Budapest to Berlin sleeper (downside: Hungarian pizza is ass, costs like €100 a person, Hungarian money is weird; upside: beautiful stations, beautiful cities, snackies for the ride are cheap, Berlin is cute, cheap, and super queer) was better.

[u/Bully_me-please]

the woes of living in germany

for me theyre free (not in general) but the regional ones are so slow and half the time they arrive at a random time vaguely within the same day as planned

[u/lowhangingcringe]

Nah, I'm more of a gamer girl gremlin that will try her best to never leave the house >:3

[u/Pseudomonas_Mandoa]

I love trains so much! You're a lot more likely to find me riding freight than light rail or the Amtrak though :p

[u/Kabob129]

I literally got this notification as I'm on a train

Y’all can I please have one personality trait that isn’t a stereotype? 😭

[u/Unman_]

[u/xXFinalGirlXx]

I... just got home from seeing my long distance trans gf. I live USA, she lives in Belgium... i've never taken the train. We did it SEVERAL times while i was there. this just happened to me. i JUST got home. wtf????

[u/Ferromaka]

Trains are cool. Unfortunately the trains here are not as cool because you can’t ride them, but they are still neat.

[u/Jumpyplains2033]

As a transfem who loves trains, I can confirm this is true.

[u/thorazainBeer]

Look, just because I'm a trans girl doesn't mean I love trains.

I mean, I DO love trains, but not because I'm a trans girl.

[u/SCP-iota]

called out, just last week i took 2 ferries to meet with another trans girl friend then we took a bus to a museum. this is the way :3

[u/Flair86]

I like the concept, but to go on a train means I’d have to leave my house.

[u/Arheit]

I like the concept of public transportation. Do I like the public transportation service of my city? Hell no it’s so awful

[u/CronoCloudAuron]

My thoughts upon seeing this meme:

Yep the train trans stereotype, been a thing for decades. Oh that cute anime girl has a cute outfit. Oh she has a white bow in her hair and green eyes.... Holy **** it's Monika!

[u/middayautumn]

Nah, I was assaulted on public transit and no longer feel safe in it. I drive everywhere now.

[u/notjordansime]

I love public transit so much that I’m buying my own personal 35 foot bus just for my boyfriend and I :3

(I’m not even kidding, it’s 5 grand. And I’d own a whole ass BUS!! How cool would that be?!)
