The "Green Train" in your memory, what are the interesting things about catching a train in the 1980s?

Taking a "green train" is an experience that many of us have had. In that era of underdeveloped transportation, most people's choice of travel was the green train. That stuffy and crowded green train may seem like a very bad experience to us now, but for us in the 1980s, it was a very interesting experience. On the train, you can play cards to kill the boring time, and you can also eat instant noodles that you are reluctant to eat on weekdays. The most important thing is that through this green train, we can see different scenery along the way.

The first time I took a green train was when I was 12 years old. Even though the green train at that time did not have air conditioning, the seats were not as comfortable as they are now; but after riding once, I fell in love with riding this kind of train. The green train, so much so that for a long time after that, I wanted to ride the green train again. Because my sister-in-law lives in Mianyang, my brother and I go to Mianyang for a few days every summer with my grandparents. This journey only takes an hour now, but at that time, it took more than 10 hours to take the green train. However, for my brother and I, not only did the green train not feel boring, but it was full of fun. .

The greatest pleasure lies in my brother and I’s love for the giant train. Although we have lived by the railway since childhood and watched the trains passing by every day, we have never taken a train. I still remember the first time we took a train, my brother and I were very excited. On this running train, we ran from the first car to the last car, and then from the last car back to the first car.

In the meantime, every time the train passed through a tunnel and every time it stopped at a small station, my brother and I were filled with a sense of novelty. We also like the pleasant time brought by this green leather train. We play cards, eat snacks and specialties bought along the way, and look at the scenery along the way, chatting and laughing before reaching the destination. Although today's trains are too comfortable, I have never enjoyed the joy that green trains bring!
