and peahens ogether known as peafowls are world famous for the peacock's enormous flashy train

At this time the male already has his train up and is casually moving around in his display area Yorzinski told Livescience.

Recently Yorzinski and her colleagues discovered that peahens ignore most of a peacock's display train

and instead keep their gaze focused on only the lower portion of the train. They also appear to look back

and forth across this area of the train potentially as a way to gauge its width

The upper portion of the train on the other hand may help peahens spot peacocks across large distances or over dense foliage.

and theatrical courtship displays peahens almost always gazed at the lower part of the peacock's train of feathers particularly below the neck.

or the length of a male's train influenced a female's mating decisions. Others thought peahens were drawn likely to the distinctive eyespots on a peacock's display of feathers.

Peahen gaze Yorzinski is unsure why peahens focus primarily on the lower part of a peacock's train.

She suggests the peacock's upper train may help females spot males across long distances since in India where peacocks are typically found thick vegetation could obscure everything except the top part of the males'display of feathers.

when they're far away females use the upper train to find the males and then as they get closer they start directing their eyes to the lower part of the train Yorzinski said.

She also noticed that females seem to look back and forth across the lower part of the train which could indicate that they are assessing its width she added.

The width of the male's train could reveal some information about his age since a young male won't have as big a train as a more mature one Yorzinski explained.

A symmetrical train could also give indications about a male's quality such as his immune function

or some other aspects of him that may be indicators to females that he might provide healthy offspring.

Yorzinski intends to follow up this study by manipulating some of the male peacock's traits

however, a furious debate has emerged among behavioural ecologists over whether the train of the male peafowl,

Plucking feathers from a male's train ruined his chances2. Later, French scientists found that males with lots of eyespots had stronger immune systems than less showy males

We propose that the peacock's train is an obsolete signal for which female preference has already been lost

before plucking, males typically had between 165 and 170 eyespots on their trains, and on average, those with the most eyespots didn't mate any more than males with less extravagant tails.

females don't pick mates on the basis of the number of eyespots on their trains,

Other characteristics, including the colour and pattern of a train, may still entice females, she says.

and then filmed the same birds taking off without their trains. The display feathers which naturally moult at the end of the breeding season were cropped to judge the change in take off performance between the two states.

and the movement of the train in take off and then calculated the amount of power used by the birds to accelerate

He found it was essentially the same regardless of the presence or absence of the train.

Intuitively you expect that the train would detrimentally affect flight performance and so not finding a detectable effect was a bit surprising Dr Askew said.

The train of the peacock is one of the most iconic examples of sexual selection in the animal kingdom.

Dr Askew also looked at how much drag the train created during take off by mounting a detached train in a wind tunnel.

Therefore the impact of the train on the overall take off performance is negligible allowing birds with

and without trains to invest the same amount of power in the ascent. The results do not mean that having an ornate train carries no costs for peacocks.

Dr Askew pointed out that the feathers might adversely affect flight stability and the birds'ability to run.

But for the most part the trains that runs across the country are using diesel. How much are you saving by using rail?

If the train does more, the reduction can be more. What are some of the logistical challenges with shipping by rail?

Typically, trucking can be faster than the train. On that same shipment, you could be part of a driving team

So there are some products that can t be shipped by train because of the extra time. Let s say ipods they re small, they re very expensive,
