Train Track – Where History Meets the Journey of Life!

 


Every track has a story. What’s yours?

As I prepare to release my new single Train Track, I’ve been divingdeep into the world of trains - not only for their fascinating history but alsofor what they symbolize: life’s endless journeys, departures, arrivals, and thetracks we leave behind.

Did youknow?

The very first passenger station in the world opened in Liverpool, England, in 1830. A modest beginning that changed how humanity moves forever.

The largest train station today is Grand Central Terminal in New York City, a breathtaking masterpiece with 44 platforms and 67 tracks. More than just a station, it’s a living movie set of daily comings and goings.

On the other end of the spectrum lies Damems Station in the UK - one of the smallest stations, where trains only stop on request. Proof that even the tiniest platforms can hold big stories.

Across the globe, there are tens of thousands of stations - too many to count - each one a gateway to someone’s story.

India leads the world with over 7,300 stations - a web of rails that connect millions of lives daily.

And if you wonder how many trains run worldwide each day? Just in India alone, there are about 25,000 passenger and freight trains daily. Multiply that across the globe, and the number becomes staggering.

These facts remind me why trains have always been more than just machines.They are metaphors for our lives - constant movement, choices of direction,moments of stillness at stations, and the unstoppable flow of time.

That’s the heart of Train Track. It’s not just a song about railsand stations - it’s about life’s railway.

Soon, I’ll be launching a photo and writing contest on Instagram andmy blog. I’ll be inviting you to share your own “train track stories” - whetherthey’re about real journeys or metaphorical ones. The winning story will berewarded with an Amazon voucher (to buy books or music for your next ride).

This project is for everyone who believes that every journey matters.Stay tuned. The train is about to leave the station...
