Short story:

While Mary Chapin Carpenter is driving in her car on the first anniversary of 9/11, she hears one of the first responders tell a story on her car radio about how he felt that he and his co-responders hed somehow helped set free the spirits of people trapped in Ground Zero when the planes crashed. He also felt that some of those spirits had travelled with him to Grand Central Station, and caught their usual trains home. She is so moved by the story that she is inspired to write the song Grand Central Station.
