21 NOV 2016 · This week's episode is a submission, courtesy of Courtney. Hollywood would have you believe that the woman this story is about is a fishnet-clad woman of the night working a street corner and getting into cars with strange men.

7 NOV 2016 · This episode is a bit out of the ordinary for us - we're featuring three shorter stories, all of which are slightly off-kilter. Involving a head wound, vomiting, and house plants, these mini Train Stories are true odds and ends. Two stories come courtesy of first-time contributor Trevor. Enjoy
31 OCT 2016 · Growing up, I loved playing "Where's Waldo?" Well, truth be told, I only had one book and I was never any good at finding Waldo, but nonetheless I loved searching. There was something endlessly entertaining about scouring the hordes of colorful nobodies, looking for that signature bespectacled, smirking face.

17 OCT 2016 · We have a very special episode today: our first story that isn't mine! This Train Story was submitted by Kelsey, and it follows her as she gets left behind on a train in a foreign country. Enjoy!
3 OCT 2016 · I wasn't having the best day on the day this Train Story happened, but something told me I had a story coming to me, I just had to be patient. Then, on the train ride home from work, I was thrown directly into the middle of a story so intriguing I went immediately home and started working on this episode. Enjoy!
19 SEP 2016 · I recently went to a Cubs game at Wrigley Field with my girlfriend, which to any Chicagoan means an insane amount of tourists and fans packed together both in and out of the stadium. The train ends up being one of the most congested places, which makes for uncomfortable travel, but is ideal for finding Train Stories.
5 SEP 2016 · I felt the old woman's eyes fastened on me, ice-cream scooping into my soul and digging up secrets even I had forgotten.
