Into Rail

Into Rail by John Hegley 'The first train I rode in I rode in when I was eight it was a beautiful beast, a great one-nostrilled, black dragon cheerfully dragging its human wagon loads. Now the nostrils have gone but the benevolence goes on. The loco lives the loco gives . Even the trains I do not catch transport me .John Hegley (b. 1953 )By permission of the author from Beyond Our Kennel (1998)
