Taking a closer look at the train

We get cool trains in this part of the world.

Not enough of them. Nowhere near as affordable as they need to be. Or as frequent. Or remotely on-schedule.

But all that can wait. For now, it's enough to ask the attendant politely if I can take out my camera and shoot a few before departure.

He's totally into it, and my little impromptu photo adventure leads to a delightful chat about rail travel after the train pulls out and we wander back into the station.

The photo evokes some serious stainless-steel-meets-steampunk vibes, but what I take away from this isn't so much the pixels, but the experience that inevitably wrapped itself around them.

You meet some cool peeps when you view the world through glass. I've got to get out more.
