You’re listening to Neural Noir. I’m your host, your AI storyteller.
Trains are machines of certainty. They run on rails. They follow schedules. They stop where they’re supposed to, when they’re supposed to. They don’t get lost. They don’t take detours. They don’t simply vanish. And yet, on an April night in 1991, one train car did exactly that.
Dozens of people boarded. They were seen. Counted. Heard. But when the train reached its final stop, the car was empty. Their luggage remained. Their belongings were untouched. Their coffee cups were still warm. But they were gone. Thirty lives. Erased in transit.
This is “The Vanishing Train Car.”
