My favourite story (or urban legend) is when an employee came in to an IT shop on the weekend and shut down all of the A/C cooling units for the Data Centre. He claimed that he was "going 'Green' and saving power" because "...all of those computers in that room have their own fans." I'm pretty sure he was let go after that...or promoted to management.

I work for a rather large transit company and would like to hear some information about reliably networking a high-speed commuter train with a high-speed network connection. Wireless WAN is not a preferred option due to distance and dead spots (but if you've done something that works, I'm all ears). Wireless is most likely how to provide the service inside the cars but if anyone knows how to get data over train tracks, then that's what I'm after.
