Just Post @lemmy.world The Picard Maneuver @startrek.website 2y ago Their infrastructure is disappointing
apparently, there used to be a (very) short line at dumont (french research station) for moving supplies.https://sinfin.net/railways/world/antarctica.html
This sent me down a rabbit hole which was quite enjoyable. Thank you!For the reference of others, here's where that research station is. I couldn't find a map showing where the tracks ran to and from.
A few brave souls are committed to riding bicycles down there at least.https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/05/omar-di-felice-cycle-across-antarctica-second-attempt-interview-family-health
I also heard they don't have a single McDonald's there. What a boring place.
