They
looked
at
one
another
.
There
was
no
answer
.
"
Very
well
,
"
she
said
.
"
You
don
’
t
have
to
speak
.
I
’
m
Dagny
Taggart
,
the
Operating
Vice
-
President
of
this
railroad
,
and
"
—
there
was
a
rustle
of
response
from
the
group
,
half
-
movement
,
half
-
whisper
,
resembling
relief
—
"
and
I
’
ll
do
the
speaking
.
We
are
on
a
train
that
has
been
abandoned
by
its
crew
.
There
was
no
physical
accident
.
The
engine
is
intact
.
But
there
is
no
one
to
run
it
.
This
is
what
the
newspapers
call
a
frozen
train
.
You
all
know
what
it
means
—
and
you
know
the
reasons
.
Perhaps
you
knew
the
reasons
long
before
they
were
discovered
by
the
men
who
deserted
you
tonight
.
The
law
forbade
them
to
desert
.
But
this
will
not
help
you
now
.
"
A
woman
shrieked
suddenly
,
with
the
demanding
petulance
of
hysteria
,
"
What
are
we
going
to
do
?
"
Dagny
paused
to
look
at
her
.
The
woman
was
pushing
forward
,
to
squeeze
herself
into
the
group
,
to
place
some
human
bodies
between
herself
and
the
sight
of
the
great
vacuum
—
the
plain
stretching
off
and
dissolving
into
moonlight
,
the
dead
phosphorescence
of
impotent
,
borrowed
energy
.
The
woman
had
a
coat
thrown
over
a
nightgown
;
the
coat
was
slipping
open
and
her
stomach
protruded
under
the
gown
’
s
thin
cloth
,
with
that
loose
obscenity
of
manner
which
assumes
all
human
self
-
revelation
to
be
ugliness
and
makes
no
effort
to
conceal
it
.
For
a
moment
,
Dagny
regretted
the
necessity
to
continue
.
"
I
shall
go
down
the
track
to
a
telephone
,
"
she
continued
,
her
voice
clear
and
as
cold
as
the
moonlight
.
"
There
are
emergency
telephones
at
intervals
of
five
miles
along
the
right
-
of
-
way
.
I
shall
call
for
another
crew
to
be
sent
here
.
This
will
take
some
time
.
You
will
please
stay
aboard
and
maintain
such
order
as
you
are
capable
of
maintaining
.
"
"
What
about
the
gangs
of
raiders
?
"
asked
another
woman
’
s
nervous
voice
.
"
That
’
s
true
,
"
said
Dagny
.
"
I
’
d
better
have
someone
to
accompany
me
.
Who
wishes
to
go
?
"
She
had
misunderstood
the
woman
’
s
motive
.
There
was
no
answer
.
There
were
no
glances
directed
at
her
or
at
one
another
.
There
were
no
eyes
—
only
moist
ovals
glistening
in
the
moonlight
.
There
they
were
,
she
thought
,
the
men
of
the
new
age
,
the
demanders
and
recipients
of
self
-
sacrifice
.
