Ideas for railroad and trains implementation
Hello, I am a student of a Metropheroran Systems Maintenance course. In the next semester I will participate in an undergraduate project of the course.
But me and my group are still undecided on which topic and what kind of problem to solve. In a way it is mandatory that the project involves mechanical and electronic, and is not so expensive to develop. Can anyone help me with ideas?

Interrail One-Country Pass Valid on International Trains?
I'm going to be travelling to switzerland later this year and I was looking at options for rail passes while there. I'm between the SBB Swiss Travel pass, which I know is valid on the Giruno trains into Italy and the Interrail One-Country Pass for switzerland - I'd be inclined to get the latter as it's cheaper but I can't find any information as to whether its valid on a trip across the border into Italy (Milan specifically) so any help would be appreciated!

Is foreign power less common now?
Maybe it’s where I live (NS mainline from DC-ATL) but I used to see other railways engines, UP and BNSF especially on trains a lot but I have only seen it happen one time in the last year. Is this becoming less common everywhere or just here?

Strange question: What was the highest number of chimes used on a steam whistle in the US?
The vast majority seem to be 3, 5, or 6 chimes, and I know that the Great Northern had 7 chime whistles and I believe so did the Illinois Central at one point, but did any have 8 or 9 chime whistles?
And before anyone asks, I did Google it, but Google is unhelpful.
Edit: The highest I've found so far is Casey Jones's engine on the IC used a 8 chime whistle.
