   usage: train, cars. at one time "train" meaning railroad
          train was also referred to in the u. s. by the phrase
          "the cars". in the 1913 dictionary the usage was
          described thus: "train is the word universally used in
          england with reference to railroad traveling; as, i
          came in the morning train. in the united states, the
          phrase the cars has been extensively introduced in the
          room of train; as, the cars are late; i came in the
          cars. the english expression is obviously more
          appropriate, and is prevailing more and more among
          americans, to the exclusion of the cars."
