Every night, at exactly eight minutes past nine, it [roars] through the village. I can see it coming several miles away, its powerful headlight [fingering] rails and telegraph wires with a shimmer of light. Silently and slowly it seems to draw nearer; then suddenly, it is almost above me. A wild roar of steam and driving wheels, the wail of its hoarse whistle at the crossing, and then, [looming] black against the night sky, it [smashes] past, and in the swing of drivers and connecting rods I think of a greyhound, or a racehorse [thundering] the final stretch. High in the cab window, a motionless figure peers ahead into the night; suddenly he is blackly [silhouetted] by the glare of the opened fire-door, and in the orange light I can see the fireman swing back and forth as he [feeds] his fire. The light [burns] against the steam and smoke above; then blackness โ and now the white windows of the carriages [flicker] past, and through the swirl of dust and smoke I watch the two red lights [sink] down the track.
