Turkish term or phrase: lokomotife yatırıyor
Trenin yeni makinistleriyle konuşmak için dizel lokomotife biniyorum. Makinist Oguzhan Yılmaz, "Hazır bir gazeteci bulmuşken," diyerek içinde ukde olan bir konuyu lokomotife yatırıyor:"Bayramlarda, yılbaşlarında televizyonlar 'Herkes tatil yaparken onlar görevlerinin başındaydı' diye haber yapıyor. Polisleri, doktorlarý, hemþireleri, itfaiyecileri gösteriyorlar. Bir kere bile tren makinistleri için böyle haber yapılmadı. Bu trenler bayramlarda kendi kendine mi gidiyor?"
