The Two Deaths Of Senora Puccini (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
Additional Christmases and birthdays brought more steam, diesel, electric, and turbine locomotives; stockcars, hoppers, tank cars, boxcars, cabooses, passenger and lounge cars; plus railway yards, cattle crossings, water towers, stations, tunnels, bridges, small villages, artificial grass, dozens of little trees, and yards and yards of track, until by the time I was in my early teens, I had two rooms in the attic with a train system that any great nation would be proud of. I also had a wind-up Victrola and a stack of 78 RPM records with the sounds of different locomotives, conductors calling “All Aboard!,” the clack and rattle of speeding wheels, and a variety of bells, whistles, sirens, and horns, so that every day the attic rang with the noise of commerce and transportation. It was there I spent most of my time away from school and even while reading or studying I would don my engineer’s cap, then set the trains in motion. Often, while I did my homework, half a dozen engines would be pulling as many as seventy-five passenger or freight cars along my quarter mile of track.
