What would be the reason to build artificial islands? Are they populated?
We have a steam locomotive being restored here at the Florida Railroad Museum. The trains are not blue.

That makes sense!
Yes, the artificial islands are populated. Kobe is just too crowded and there wasn't enough land, so they literally made more!
That is nice about the steam locomotive restoration, I'm a huge railway enthusiast!
And since we're sharing pictures (or were until they all disappeared), this is me and my dad. He served 35 years in the army and was 2 years from retirement when I joined. This was after the grad parade for my GMT (basic training).
