Where to go? It's so late,
beautiful train, lonely train?
Sorrow is the sound of your whistle.
It reminds people of many things.
why shouldn't I wave a towel?
all the passengers are related to me.
Go ahead. I hope you have a safe trip.
Bridges are strong and tunnels are bright.

Appreciating Trains
Trains and ships are ancient means of transportation, bearing many collective memories of mankind, and taking them as poems is particularly easy to arouse readers' association. The poem "Train" is just two sections, which mainly touches people's hearts by grasping three points:
1. The connection between the question of where the train is going and the question of the meaning of life. It is not only trains that easily lead to associations about life, but also railway stations. Yu Guangzhong mentioned the "rushing people" on the railway station platform in Memory is as long as a railway track, such as being swept in and out in the "vortex of life".
2. The connection between the train flute and people's loneliness. The train flute sounds particularly miserable in the middle of the night, and people who wake up alone at night are not lonely.
3. The connection between strangers and relatives. "The passengers are more or less related to me", and the phrase "the bridges are strong and the tunnels are bright" and the move of waving and waving handkerchiefs to train passengers are sure to bring warmth to many people on the journey.
