Reconstituting a blogspace on Tumbler - Looking for suggestions
Well, hello friends and family. I was reminded via email that my Tumblr account has been inactive for a long time. I have two instances - one was called “TrainspottingDallas”, in the hopes that I would become a commuter again. Alas, I have to, reluctantly, be in my car to get to work. The other was just my “handle” - SreeY1971-Blog”. Sure it;s accurate, but not compelling. Is it a blog about anybody named Sree and why (SreeY, get it?), or only for those who have an unnatural interest in the year 1971? Although interesting to some, I don’t find the blog name to be compelling enough. So, I’m asking my friends - set. If I start up a blog (again; RIP trainspottingChicago.com), what shall I name it? Your thoughts. Here’s to blogging. Regards,
Sree Plano, TX 08/14/19

Good morning. I’m on the 7:30AM into the City. Its a chilly day for Late May in Chicago. The NF index is 3.
The train just left the station, but the intrepid commuters, who believe that they will reach their destination faster if they were in the lead car versus a comfortable seat a few cars back, stomp through the train as if climbing Everest. If the wheezes and grunts are any indication,…

Good morning. I’m on the 7:55AM into the City, after just missing the 7:30AM. Happy Friday to all.
It’s been awhile since I have posted about the comings and goings on the train. Lots of changes happening for the commuter set.
The train is less crowded. This could be due to more telecommuting opportunities. This train is one of the later express trains, so many of the hard working commuter set…

Good afternoon.
On the, best and brightest, 3:55PM out of the City.
A crowded front train car this early evening. My parents have been married for fifty years on this day. They wish to have the family out for dinner – pizza, as is their call – requiring me to get home and clean up.
It’s also “Darwin’s Day”. Charles Darwin was born on this day 206 years ago, February 12, 1809. Abraham Lincoln…

Good afternoon. I’m on the, now legendary, 3:58PM out of the City. In my old stomping grounds – first car just behind the engine. I’m in my favorite jump seat, facing the crowd.
I got here a bit early so I could catch this seat. I’m hoping some of the old regulars will show up.
Caucasian Barack Obama is here. The young, handsome fellow is seated where I last left him, up on the second floor…

Good morning.
I’m on the 7:48AM express, which should have been the 7:28AM express, but was “delayed due to mechanical issues”. The NF Index is two.
Its been awhile since I’ve posted, and I felt that I am doing myself a disservice by having a blogspot but not providing meaningful, or at least updated, content.
The crowd is older. The median age of the commuters in the rear quiet car is at…

Good morning. I’m on the 7:50AM into the City. The NF index is 2.
I’m sitting in the rear “quiet car” in my favorite place. The crowd is entertaining themselves with a mix of smartphone broadcast options and a fair number of printed books. Real books! Hmph. That’s so retro!
A primarily Caucasian crowd. The fellow in the way-back window seat, across the aisle, reminds me of a young Andy Garcia…

Good morning. I’m on the 7:50AM into the City.
It’s a warm morning for early November, but the chills will come later this week. I’m in the rear quiet car. I found that I am tired of jostling with the morning scrum and fight for a seat near the front, just to race to the office. Good thing come to those who pace.
A younger, very handsome, Jeremy Irons with black hair sits across from me. He is…

Good morning.
I’m on the 8:30AM into the City. This blog is coming full circle. I started this travelogue two years ago, on advise from two dear friends of mine. One was a literary magazine editor in am past life; the other is a financial reporter. They both saw my original Facebook posts about my train rides as “Studs Terkel-ish, everyman observations” and convinced me, at a college homecoming…

Good afternoon.
I’m on the 3:58PM out of the City.
Harvey Keitel sat across from me in the choice jump seat. He faces the path of travel. I am looking at the crowd. Though average height, about 5′-9″ or so, Harvey crouches when he sits. Gunmetal black button down shirt, jet black slacks. Black shoes. Very Monday meetings looking. He is yawning, which is horribly contagious, as I start to as…

Good evening.
I’m on the, exceptionally brief, 5:22PM out of the City.
This train is an express to my very nice stop, with one prior stop to the very Very nice stop before my own. My Boss borrowed my family minivan for a thing he had to do today, but he let me drive his very very nice luxury sedan. The rules? From his house to my house last night. From my house to the very Very nice town station…

Good afternoon. I’m on the 3:58PM out of the City.
I think John Cleese and Merv Griffin just sat next to me in the jump seat on this crowded train home.
The Python is in full modern-day mustachio-mode, with thinking gray hair, a gray beard, button-down tightly-patterned checkered shirt on a gray background, and black slacks that are too tight in the nether regions. He is not well endowed, or…

Good afternoon. I’m on the 3:58PM out of the City.
Dr. Jeckyl-Hyde is here. He is frustrated about something. He just went into a silent tirade. I can’t quite make out what’s bothering him, but it is either the recent half-measures proposed by the POTUS about ISIL in Iraq, or he is reenacting a particularly animated breakup with an office romance that happened in 1983.
He seems to be lecturing…
