  "summary": "Over a night map of Europe, 162 night-train lines light up one after another, longest first and faster and faster, while a counter climbs to 162. After a held beat of near silence, the whole lit network settles into a 50 × 70 poster in the Night poster theme, and its glow cools from light to ink as it prints. The poster reads 'Europe by night train / 162 lines', and the film ends on the invitation to draw your night trains on a poster at trainmap.app.",
