Sartakovsky Railway Bridge over the Oká River near Nizhniy Novgorod (Russia)

A wind was howling and knew not about whom,
inspiring trembling in our heart.
a peasant woman walked with milk,
walked along the railroad track.
But at seven sharp, in due form,
tearing in full career from the Oka,
having flashed behind the signal-posts,
an express train takes off’.

In a poem by Mayakovski
