3 DAYS OF SNOW - The 3rd DAY AFTER
A man runs in the snow, almost came to life. He had given up a place of scripture in Milano Centrale to get closer to home. And so 'had left the office to become responsible a checkpoint. The trains were not stopping. Trains do not could stop. He had just greeted by little, his family, a young woman, very pretty, with a kiss, and children were still asleep, with a caress. The abundant snow fell in a flurry that you closed your eyes and you scrape the skin. We had to maneuver

few flakes started to fall the night before and then during the night but do not resist. The day after the snow "is held until early afternoon and then breaks loose."
traffic on the roads began to be in crisis, and so ', even trains.
The first travelers and commuters at the station for the return trip of the afternoon and evening return home, find themselves in a situation already 'completely out of control. The trains have to Lambrate, long delays and begin to be deleted. The people crowded to take any available train to your destination.
A train to Bergamo, double, those who do not stop 'in Treviglio West, is, however, stormed. Someone asks you to stop in Treviglio, but also in crisis, lacking sensitivity 'and the lucidity' or the "courage" to make the decision. What would happen to

Day. The morning in the West Treviglio boards indicate primissi deleted morning trains, the latter lagging behind and, then, after nine "and something", all deleted. Some trains would then pass. In reality 'ads sound, that feel just outside the station (' cause inside are not active) and that, in the days before, did not work even outside creating great hardships, soon confirmed that the loop does not work and that perhaps will come 'a train to Bergamo with great delay.
No news for the only train to Milan with a stop at the station Trevor West (the only one left and largely attended 'cause most comfortable for the time but not as such). In the electronic billboard seems to be time and without any delay and the people wait until 'someone, in the absence of news, with time passing and time well spent now, goes to the Central station in Treviglio.
the Central station in Treviglio the main program does not work.
beeps warn you not to watch the other screen as untrusted. Many people are not even given the conditions of the roads came, the snow falling relentlessly and, therefore, the possibility 'that the day is still marked by heavy snowfall.
The people 'grouped outside, behind the railway station or in local affairs. The docks are deserted.
During the day, in the afternoon, the snow gradually becomes more and more coming to be 'liquid. Towards evening, around 18:30, it rains. this is a sigh of relief to many people and, also, to commuters.
morning after: Trevor West station. The morning after the station of West Treviglio there 'no doubt. The loop does not work and a subsequent announcement said that the movement and 'suspended at least until 10:00 am
It also bears witness to a train stopped on entry to the station, on the Treviglio to Central and Milan.
People are on the square outside the station and are discussing what to do, especially those who need to take the train to Bergamo. People are nervous. Some remain, however, on the platform for the direction Bergamo, almost waiting for the arrival of a train is unlikely
someone falls on the stairs coming out clean on the part of the station from the square.
By contrast, the scales of the underpass were quite clean. Perhaps the many incidents in past years have taught something. But why 'not to commit some money to put a cover and why' do not avoid build more subways like that totally unsuitable to ensure accessibility 'and security in a cold climate.
travelers, commuters, gathered at the square outside, discuss the situation. The news that everything is 'completely blocked, it leaves room for many possibilities'. Someone speaks angrily of bus replacement. Those who are there for the only train to Milan are now in Treviglio Centrale.
Actually 'someone, thinking well and still not knowing the time, and' came from Central Station Treviglio Treviglio West hoping to find some train leaving for Milan. At the same time travelers, other reports came from Venice and Cremona, hoping (beyond 'passing through the Bergamo that does not work) to find some train coming from Milan Bergamo.
Unfortunately the situation and 'equal in both stations, the operation of trains and' suspended and no one knows 'when it will resume'. The presence of the formation of ice on power lines and areas do not permit the transit of trains.
A Treviglio Central Square and 'flooded cars and people that make up a strange mixture irregular.
The newcomers ask for understanding. The sound alerts keep saying not to look at bulletin boards. The central board and 'completely empty as the day before. On the station square, however, 'there' and many people inside the station and 'crowded to capacity. The rain of the night, in fact, made many travelers think of that in the morning there would be no problems. Instead, the railway traffic, and 'completely blocked.
on the docks, along with two long-distance trains stopped, few people who look around or make phone calls.
Meanwhile people screaming inside the square and they are nervous. Has anyone tried to talk to the railroad workers in the building near the main building of the station. It 'came also the news that they will reach two replacement buses to Bergamo, but how will they bring all the people. The crowd becomes more and more 'noisy. Time passes, each one does its accounts (even if a train arrives almost immediately, I get at least office in more than eleven but the possibility 'of the train there'). Many people back home.
The Man in the snow has unlocked and operated manual transmission. The train will pass' regularly even today ...
That man was my grandfather.
I'm walking home. On many occasions I thought my neighbors were dear to me, even my grandfather. Perhaps we are walking together now, I smile and even Him
Thanks Grandpa for the example you gave me again this morning.
