An ode to every train, all the locomotives in my life, moving me from here to there. The best trains are the ones you don't notice, you just get on and tune out and you get to where you're going. I've noticed trains before: the tardy trains, the broken-down trains, the packed-capacity trains. I never take the time to notice a train when it's reliable. Thanks, train. 

Well, no, not this train. This isn't my train. I can't take a picture of my own train, for it got me where I needed to go without hassle, and so I didn't even realize it was there. A picture of what?
