Music                     Wiegenlied für Züge             7 January 2026


   Old steam trains often had whistles that worked much like organ
   pipes, as both are labial aerophones, instruments where air splits
   against a sharp edge to create sound.  Perhaps that's why trains
   always seemed so alive to me.  I breathe.  They breathe.  Organs
   breathe.  This might be how a choir of trains would sound, gathered
   together in a depot before sleep.
