"Herded before the closed gates they squirm and struggle or stand subdued, though the train is in. And they spit till you can’t put your bag down. But over all the smoke curls and swirls and the sun in the late afternoon streams in and turns the station to glory, transfigures even the Commuters." J[oseph] P[ennell].
