train time
When locomotives leave
Train time is the scheduled departure of a train, used as a reference point for when someone needs to leave or be ready: We'd better get moving—it's almost train time.
The phrase functions like a deadline or countdown marker, emphasizing that trains run on fixed schedules that won't wait.
