Not visible in the map, but interesting to note, is that in France the trains normally drive on the left, except in Alsace where they drive on the right as a legacy of the time the province belonged to Germany.

    How can there not be rail traffic in Libya? I mean, there has to be some kind of line that runs along the southern rim of the Pacific.

    Hmm. Apparently the map is right.

    There have been no operational railways in Libya since 1965, but various lines existed in the past. Since 1998, plans for an extensive system have been developed,[1] but work has largely halted since the outbreak of the First Libyan Civil War in 2011.

    It looks like there’s rail along the south Mediterranean rim except through Libya. Doesn’t even detour south around Libya. I guess one switches cargo to ship or truck or something.
