SisterBetty.orgRail Tripping
As we speed backward at twenty five miles per hour, a cowboy on his steed waits on a bluff over the track.  He charges down and races alongside the train, one hand on his hat and one on the reigns.  He passes us, waits, and then races past us again.  As he flies by one last time, his hat catches the wind and disappears in the dust behind the horse.  The children scream with happiness and wave.  Car Attendant glowers then disappears into the last coach to serve drinks to respectable passengers.
