I love this prose! Trains are one of my favorite things. I subscribe to an app called Calm. It has Sleep Stories and other things to help you relax for bed. My favorite story is The Orient Express... it's a telling of the experience of riding the famous train. With your tale, I was able to not only experience the train itself, but to visualize the wonder, the excitement, the danger ,and the innocence of childhood during bleak times. You took me along with you for the ride, so to speak. xx
Thank you so much Jayne. I both loved and feared the train as it seemed like a big breathing machine to me at an early age. My heart used to thump seeing it approach! It is sad that the train is no longer running but in a museum now. It was such a blessing to my parents and grandparents who lived in a rural area. Xx

This was such an entertaining read and I found myself holding my breath on what comes next. I have never been to Ireland and now I want to visit!
Such a great story! You really capture the moment!
That was so enjoyable. You can really tell a story! Loved it.
What a great telling!
