"across the tracks" or "down by the tracks," with their
implication that there was something disreputable and
socially low-life about living near railroad tracks. After
living many years a block from the Espee's rails, we rise
to say that there are many worse places to live.
living close to the railroad has its obvious advantages ,
when you are a boy. Where is there a more romantic
place than the right of way, with wheezing switch en
gines, puffing freights (which travel so much faster now
than they used to) and speeding passenger trains?
Morning, noon and night railroading holds attraction
for a boy, which is why so many of them go into it,
finding a romance which never dulls until they die.
"But how can you stand the noise?" someone asks;
. Far from being bothered by the noises, you get so you
find them soothing and conducive to repose. You get so
you can tell the freight trains from the passengers, and
you distinguish the touch on the whistle rope of that in
dividualistic engineman who makes his blasts so short,
harp and distinctive.
The various whistle notes represent to you these giant
creatures of fire and steel talking to one another over
long distances and on winter nights, when the wind is
blowing end the rain is pelting against the windows it is
pleasant to think of engineer and fireman, snug in their
cab with the fire roaring below them, shunting lines of
can up and down the glistening wet tracks.
If these night noises from the tracks are comfortable
and appealing to you during peace they have even mora
of these qualities during war. You realize that both the

long trains you hear puffing and snorting these night)
are tnxip trains and others are weighed down with war's
materiel. It is comfortable to reflect what a great job the
railroadmen ara doing, driving their trains and switching
their cars 24 hours a day, even while you are asleep.
Back a few years, when trucks and buses started to
cut more and more deeply into railroad revenues, with
the airplane as an additional competitor just ahead, as a
boy living near the tracks you may have wondered a
little worriedly if they would put your old Mends, the
freights and passengers, out of business. It took the war
to show that a nation's need of railroads continues, that
no nation can be great and strong without them. You
are reassured by that, and by the articles and drawings
that have been published of vastly improved equipment
which will help the railroads get their share of traffic
after the war. Such things mean your friends will be able
to stay alive and that, drowsily safe and comfortable;
you will continue to hear the trains chugging and puffing
through the night.
We thank the San Jose News for bo beautifully putting
into words the way we railroaders, and many ether people,
fed about trains.
