This ramshackle electric “Hershey train” is an anachronism, the sort of
train you’re supposed to ride in Cuba only as a tourist or a local from
one of the villages east of Havana. It’s the slowest machine-powered
way to reach Matanzas and the best way to see the countryside. The
sugar fields, the ocean, and the quiet hills of northern Havana province
all heave into view from the railroad, looking largely unchanged from
the turn of the 20th century. Revolution, it seems, also has the power
to stop change.
