In my case, the track ways have not changed since 1860 or so. However we go through the 'green belt' (UK) between a large city and a smaller town. One notices changes with the seasons, new makeshift huts in the allotments, the sky and light is always different. A bit of the wabi-sabi really - same frame, but small changes.

I can tell which station we are pulling into by the sound and the feel of the track! Sometimes, I leave early on a Friday and walk the 10 miles back by canal footpaths.
