Rattling, Clanging and Squeaking Of Trains
Jeff recalls the rattling, clanging and squeaking of trains and writes:
I grew up in the Bronx and the memories of trains that I have are of the elevated passenger trains. They use to shake the house as they went by. I would hear the rattling and clanging and squeaking of the metal brakes.
I sinced moved away from there to a peaceful quiet place and in my heart I do miss those trains.
Now I am in my my late fifties and I have moved again. I moved about a few hundred yards away from tracks carrying freight. I now hear the trains and feel the rattling and the objects in the house shaking. I love it! I run out sometimes and count the engines and see which way they are facing.
What memories I now have old ones and new ones.
