(Many thanks to my sweet sister for those wonderful photos)
Do you know about the existence of a special train romance? The sound of wheels, landscapes careening outside the window, quiet conversation with a friend, and, finally, reading your favorite book about distant unknown countries. I traveled many miles by train: from St. Petersburg to the north of Russia, from the old European cities to the others, from the capital of India to the place, where white people are still a rarity. Train for many years has been not only my best friend, but a friend of every traveler. However, now the trains have become so fast that some grain of adventure became lost. We are accelerating our pace, while any journey should be akin to prolonged meditation. That's why I was so pleased with the images of vintage steam locomotives, awaken in everyone who is close to them, the spirit of the brave discoverer.
(Of course, I could not resist the temptation to visit St. Petersburg museum of vintage trains together with my friends. It was a gorgeous autumn day!)
