Summary/Abstract: There is nothing exceptional about the three-hour train journey from Lviv to Ternopil, in western Ukraine. It is a routine journey between two cities, home and work, past and future. It is not even a train, in the strict sense of the word; just an elektrychka, a local train linking villages to the city like an umbilical cord.
