Chasing the Factory 7: 'Means to Beat the Rhythm Across the Caribbean'

The Caribbean Sea

The Caribbean is home to many charming and passionate Latin American countries. How would you go about touring these countries?

A cruise ship, perhaps?

That's a good option, but here is what I recommend now!

Caribbean Cross Railway

The Caribbean Cross Railway (or 'Cari-Tetsu' for short) is the ultimate way to cross the Caribbean Sea with a lighthearted rhythm.

Today, I would like to share with you all the journey of the 'Cari-Tetsu,' which has been rapidly gaining popularity recently!

Starting Station: Cancun (Mexico)

It is a Mexican resort town that needs no introduction. It is also a popular spot for honeymoons. It is impossible to imagine the starting point of the Cari-Tetsu being anywhere other than Cancun.

2nd Station: Cayman Islands

The train leaving Cancun immediately runs over the sea. That's right. As you can see if you look at a map, the 'Cari-Tetsu' runs almost entirely over the ocean. By utilizing the latest construction technology, we have succeeded in laying tracks on top of the sea. Eating tacos on a train running over the clear, deep blue sea is the best!

The Cayman Islands are also famous for being the model for Robert L. Stevenson's 'Treasure Island' and for being home to iguanas. This is also a very lovely land with beautiful beaches stretching out.

3rd Station: Montego Bay (Jamaica)

After the Cayman Islands, the next stop is Montego Bay, Jamaica's second-largest city. This is also popular as a tourist destination, and you can enjoy golf on championship courses. Public safety is not good, so please refrain from going out at night.

Speaking of Jamaica, it has to be jerk chicken. You can enjoy spicy fish and meat dishes with Jamaican music like reggae playing in the background.

4th Station: Haiti

Known as one of the poorest countries among the Caribbean nations, it continues to face unstable conditions such as the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake and the assassination of its president. It is a tough place for tourism, but it is a good country to learn about the current situation of the Caribbean nations.

5th Station: Dominican Republic

In the Dominican Republic, you can enjoy activities like ziplining and cave exploration that take advantage of the great outdoors, while it is also known for having many historical buildings. The Alcázar, said to have been inhabited by the descendants of Columbus, is also famous.

Station 6
San Juan (Puerto Rico)

San Juan is the capital of Puerto Rico, where you can see colorful buildings and historical structures from the Spanish colonial era.

You will surely be captivated by Puerto Rico, where modern cityscapes and the old town coexist!

Terminal Station
Caracas (Venezuela)

The Caribbean Railway journey has finally reached its final stop.
Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, is a major city with a population of approximately 6 million. One distinctive spot is the university registered as a World Heritage site. Please be sure to stop by when you use the Caribbean Railway!

Well, how was it?
Sightseeing in the Caribbean by train is quite a wonderful experience!

Today, I imagined a convenient Caribbean Railway!
It was fun to go on a trip with you.

"SF Prototyping," which utilizes the imagination of science fiction, is very interesting. If the Caribbean Railway were actually built, it would indeed be a form of "SF Prototyping"! 😆
