Line 3: Compare [[At the Crossroads]]. See also [[Riding Into the Sunset]] and [[Train Station Goodbye]]. {{endingtrope}} {{examples}} == [[Literature]] == * Parodied in a John Sladek short story were the train is derailed by the track getting narrower toward the horizon. == [[Music]] ==▼ * In the second album of [[The Protomen\|The Protomen's]] rock opera, the first half ends when Dr. Light escapes from the lynch mob Wily's propaganda has whipped up when he gets put on a train leading out of the nameless city. Rather than being romanticized or opening up the larger world, however, it serves to highlight that Light's humanist ideals have been rejected, as well as how isolated [[The City]] is from the rest of the world, which might as well not exist from the perspective of those who live there.▼ == [[Theatre]] == Line 15 ⟶ 21: * Railroads are very prominent in the most well-hidden ending of ''[[Tsukihime]]'', Kohaku True, both in literal sense, with Shiki traveling to meet up with Kohaku {{spoiler\|at the Nanaya Mansion}}, and symbolic, representing the beginning of his new life. * Happens in ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', during a sequence where Squall is desperate to save Rinoa, and ''walks'' the railroad from Fishermen's Horizon to Esthar. The railroad spans a whole freaking ocean. ▲== [[Music]] == ▲* In the second album of [[The Protomen\|The Protomen's]] rock opera, the first half ends when Dr. Light escapes from the lynch mob Wily's propaganda has whipped up when he gets put on a train leading out of the nameless city.
