Four intense male characters in different scenes.

It’s finale weekend and I’m going to be sad there is no more Train to board next weekend.

This past weekend it was a two-fer for me, with an emotional meal on the new episodes of It’s Okay to Not be Okay and then snacking as late night treat the OCN mystery parallel worlds drama Train.
