這兩天,馬鞍山鐵路正式通車了。
這一條鐵路支線,大約花了四年時間興建。由於筆者是沙田居民,可謂見證了整條鐵路的由零到有:先是起橋躉、把架空道路建構出來,這需時最長;然後鋪路軌、架電纜,同時興建車站;最後是試車,以及粉飾車站。四年說長不長,能有機會由頭到尾看到一條鐵路的誕生,是頗有趣的。
這令我聯想起另一種「興建鐵路」。記得在玩電腦遊戲《模擬城市》系列(《Sim City》)時,就有一種興建鐵路的玩法。只要你夠錢,就可以選擇起鐵路的 Icon,然後在城市版圖上拖拖拉拉,就此一條鐵路便誕生;如遇到有阻住鐵路沿線的建築物,很簡單,拆了它便是。
鐵路完成,就可建車站,以及建設車站出入口。之後就可正式通車(不必試車),喜歡的話,可隨便多開幾條支線,絕對不必申請,亦毋須徵詢民意,因為你就是這「模擬城市」的「神」。
不知道,現實中的鐵路公司,在正式決定興建一條鐵路之前,會否先在電腦中模擬一下呢?也可能,鐵路公司的老闆們,正正是《模擬城市》的超級 Fans;電腦不夠好玩,要玩埋真鐵路!
