my railway

Click-clack! With a steady hum buzzing through my motor, I rolled forward into the yard's main junction! My red wagon trailed faithfully behind, couplers clinking with every inch of progress. Right ahead, the track turnout points were sitting slightly ajar. With a cheerful rev, I nudged my front wheels against the brass rail until it clicked cleanly into place with a crisp mechanical snap. Line clear! Bathed in the warm glow of the desk lamp, my sturdy metal chassis felt totally unstoppable on the open rails.
