This was hands down the most fun part of the tour. Volunteers have restored the electrified railway inside the mountain. They gave us a train ride from the Munitions Entrance to the Block 8 and 9 area which was over 5 minutes long. There were a couple of longer stretches where he got the locomotive going a pretty good clip. Even though it wasn't all that fast the narrow tunnel heightened the sensation of speed. It was fun and interesting to see all the side corridors and features along the way.
