Google街景火車? / Street View Trike Chased by Train

Google街景拍攝有汽車(Street View Car)、雪車(Street View Snowmobile)、三輪車(Street View Trike)、手推車(Street View Trolley)。也曾架三輪車在船上拍攝亞馬遜河川，這回Google將三輪車架在平台車上，連結在火車頭前，沿著瑞士風景優美壯麗的Albula-Bernina路線來拍攝街景。跳轉後可看到Google街景小組如何架設在火車上與拍攝情形；在Google還未放上街景前，也可先體驗一下 Glacier Express, Trans Siberian Express 所做的影片地圖。


In Brazil the Street View trike has been hitching a ride on a number of boats to capture imagery of the Amazon. In Canada and Switzerland the Street View camera has been mounted on snowmobiles to capture Street Views on piste.

Now, in Switzerland, the Street View trike has been attached to the front of a huge and powerful locomotive to capture Street View imagery of the Rhaetian Railway. The rail journey from Albula and Bernina has been on the UNESCO list of World Heritage sites since 2008 and soon we will all be able to experience this beautiful journey via the magic of Street View.

If you can't wait for the new Street View imagery to appear on Google Maps you could have a look at this video map of the Glacier Express that I created a few years ago (and miraculously still seems to work). An even more impressive video map is the Trans Siberian Express map produced by Google (from Moscow-Vladivostok).

Or you could check out this video of the Street View trike in action on the Albula and Bernina line.
