聽！那記憶深處的笛響。：吳榮秦臺灣鐵道寫真集

〈舊時代的尾班車〉
從前不懂拍照，只經常拿著傻瓜相機，四處胡亂按一通。當時，我未曾深究快門、光圈、感光度的關係，遑論其它操作相機的技巧，和更高深的攝影理論。但是，那時的我，竟意外留下許多絕版的影像。
我已經不記得，當時為何如此熱衷於對著一切景物瘋狂拍攝，無論它只是老牆上的一道斑痕，或者奔瀉千里的大河；直到取得了人生第一臺單眼相機，我才漸漸學著先凝視、再下手。卻也是在那時，我才驚覺，好多想重拍一輪的景色，早就不能再見。曾經，我對此耿耿於懷，但如今重新看過這些影像，卻又感覺沒那麼糟。最值得慶幸的，是我並未錯過花東線的老車站，全面改建前夕的光景，那些斑斑剝剝的大理石月臺、拆到一半的車站建築，和兩節一對的光華號老火車。
在那之後，舊時代的尾班車很快就開了。無論當時的我多麽不懂事，後頭的怪手又是如何窮追不捨，我終究抓緊了離站火車的門把，走進那搖搖擺擺的時代裡，找到了最後一個安身的位子。

推薦序｜資深臺灣鐵道攝影師 Loren Aandahl

The past thirty years have seen a remarkable awakening of interest in Taiwan of its railway culture following four decades of martial law where these subjects were restricted.

Thomas Wu has created a remarkable book of his own photographs of Taiwan railway. His photography explores aspects of the Taiwan railway culture not normally focused on.

The images of the ordinary everyday interaction of people and railway provide a deeply human perspective.

The mundane photograph becomes the cherished memory.

This book will be an essential part of the railway library of all persons seriously interested in the railways of Taiwan. As well, it conveys the character of the Taiwan people in a deeply human manner. Well done Thomas.
