EVERYONE LOVES TRAINS,

I liked the trains in Adelaide when I was young. They were all diesel and they were a bit of an experience. They were noisy clattering things and they had their own peculiar smell, a mix of diesel exhaust, cold steel, leather and grease. They often had a baggage carriage too with the big sliding doors on the sides that were always left open, you could sit on the rough wooden floor with the breeze in your face and watch the world slide by.

In the late 80s they switched to diesel electric trains. Quiet, airconditioned, plastic. These days they're installing ugly overhead cables everywhere and going full electric, more ecofriendly and very efficient.

There's no longer anything exciting about them, they're just pieces of plastic furniture. Handy if you live near a station, very cheap and practical, but other than that I just don't even notice them any more.
