Why do Russian rockets rollout riding railroads?
Have you ever seen videos of a Russian rocket rolling out to the pad? You might notice that it is being rolled out on a railroad. So why do Russian rockets rollout riding railroads?

@DrexxVolv I could understand music. I always play music when driving because it is comforting and makes it less boring.
@TerTech Lol. They now play music in the capsule because Yuri was bored at launch.
@TerTech I don’t know. Yuri did it when he was being transported to the launch pad, and now all the cosmonauts do it.
@TerTech Probably not. Russia/the Soviet Union has lots of these traditions at launch. Some of them are really weird, like the cosmonauts not being allowed to watch their rocket roll out. And they also have to pee behind a truck. It’s really weird.
HAHAHAHAHA! @DrexxVolv, I think there is a more practical reason for this?
@TweedleAerospace Yeah.
