What exactly does that mean? And you don't "drive" a train. The last i checked they don't have steering wheels. The correct terminology is "operate" or "run".

He purposely trails off at the very end. It's just funny how he says it. I like the guy on the 7 train who always cuts off the very end of whatever sentence he says.

It's especially bad when reporters mess this up because then I don't know for sure what they're talking about.
