一怪:“列车守望者” 英国社会中有一群最为奇特的人,叫做“列车守望者”。他们的行为让人不可理解:在各大火车站上,常常会看到他们穿着厚夹克的孤独身影,连续数小时站在肮脏喧闹的月台上,一丝不苟地记录下经过的每一辆火车的型号、名字甚至每一节车厢的编号。于是有人称呼他们为“装在夹克里的人”,意为一群令人极度厌烦、琐碎卑微的人;但对于“列车守望者”来说,他们只是一群火车迷。 A strange: “Watchmen” There is a group of the most strange people in British society, called “train watcher.” Their behavior is incomprehensible: at railway stations, they often find themselves lonely in thick jackets standing for hours on a dirty noisy platform, scrutinizing every passing train The model, name and even the number of each compartment. Someone called them “people in their jackets,” meaning a group of people who were extremely annoying and trivial, but they were just a group of train fans for “train watchers.”
