>never annoyingly loud, but when it was very quiet and calm you could hear the whistle blow sometimes
It's a very nice sound. So many good memories have a train whistle in them.

I used to hear the train horns from my house all the time at night. It's such a potent memory of mine. Now, they're silent. Only industrial sounds of machinery and God knows what else echo through these streets. Sad

I missed my train today. It was there when I reached it, but the doors where closed. I was late by maybe 30 seconds

How was the train you did make it on?

I posticipated my journey to tomorrow, but since I often take this route I know how they're like. I like these trains because they're decently clean and have power sockets. They also have two floors, the top one is the one where I typically search for a seat

I don't get sad because I know how most people are were I live. My emotions about that are mostly anger toward how they act in general.

Have trains ever made you late to anything? Do trains go through your route like this train?

Those old electric train sets are cool. I've stumbled Apon many a YouTube vid of old toy trains going round and around and I'm glad that they exist.

Did anyone see the Lego Orient Express? It's incredible.

I realized trains were really cool today for the first time in my life. Before, I only knew them as machinations to get me from A to B, or just complex feats of engineering. Today, while thinking about the Polar Express (specifically the drifting on ice the scene lol), I realized how they actually are amazing achievements of multiple generations of engineers, workers and thinkers. Hard working men that never gave up to make life easier for others and to bend specific parts of nature they wished to their will. The simple yet seemingly impossible act of man controlling metal from the Earth into a form of use for itself, for mass transport or for leisurely travel. This fact in of itself is exciting to think about! The inner workings that make them up might as well be as great as the blood vessels, sinew and nerves that make humans work. Tens of tons of metal bowing to the will of man, unstoppable in its path of submission to the conductor driving it. Every time I think of the complex raw metal machinery working within the trains, I see, I get an overwhelming sense of awe at what I'm witnessing. Trains truly are amazing feats of the will of man and what we can achieve. I completely understand trainspotting now.
