Burlington Northern pulling out of the world

I love hearing the whistles of trains going by in the night. I can hear the train itself, too, like a whisper gallery, rushing and clicking under the noise of the rain. Those wheels and whistles are part of what tells me that the city I live in is still alive.

We used to live above a railway tunnel and the only time it ever woke us up was when the first train up to London, the 4.30am DIDN'T run!

I understand that! (I hope everything was all right.)
