Famous quotes containing the words noted, passenger and/or trains:
“It is to be noted that when any part of this paper appears dull there is a design in it.”
—Richard Steele (1672–1729)
“Every American travelling in England gets his own individual sport out of the toy passenger and freight trains and the tiny locomotives, with their faint, indignant, tiny whistle. Especially in western England one wonders how the business of a nation can possibly be carried on by means so insufficient.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
