BR 2-21 The story of Trains

P.62 This is like a roller coaster!

I often use a train to go to school. Train is very fast and convenience. This book is about former trains. All right, let's begin. Chapter 1: Early engines. Hundreds of years ago, it was hard to travel from place to place. In 1712, an English blacksmith invented one. It worked using steam, only it couldn't pull a wagon so it didn't help much. I got the impression that train brought the people. In 1862, two teams of builders began work, one in the east and one in the west. For seven years, they laid rail after rail, until they finally met in Utah. After long time, most trains carry people. There are even some passenger trains that are run by computers. Trains have came a long way since Richard Trevithick's engine. It took people around and around in a circle. I will take a bus after this. Possibly train will change again.(153words) 8607/15000words
