中学１年の頃、僕はお小遣いを費やし、色んな電車に乗りに行った。
なぜかは覚えてないけれど、１人で行動することが多かった。
この路線は、当時、大阪の天王寺駅から盲腸の様に南へ飛び出した南海の短い支線で、今はもう走っていない。
今池町で降りて、どう辿り着いたのか覚えていないが、途中、子供の空き瓶攻撃を受け、恐怖に駆られながらも、天下茶屋まで歩き難波まで帰ることができた。
レトロな電車に揺られて到着したところは、色んな意味で別世界だった。
When I was the first year at junior high, I took different trains by spending my allowance.
I don't remember why, but I often take a short, day trip by myself.
This line was a Nankai Railways' short line heading south from Tennoji Station in Osaka, like an appendix. The short line is now dead track.
I got off at Imaike-cho and I walked to Tengachaya while I was full of fear with an empty bottle that neighbourhood's children threw at me although I don't remember how I got. I took a train from Tengachaya to Namba to go home.
A place, where I had reached by a old-fashioned electric train, was a different world by various meaning.
