The final completed track from the album, it plays at the start of the year 2000 with the updates to the train system. This song is in major key, and what a way to go out with a song in major key, but it strangely goes into a diminished chord too for a bit. With that in mind, its no surprise that I'm really happy with it. It even has a chord change in the end with a triumphant ending. This wasn't the first attempt to the song, but it ended up sounding too much like an action song and definitely didn't fit the happy mood of the documentary. So i went ahead and tried a piano riff similar to how I would do in Famitracker and then this song really came naturally. It has a nice flute melody in the beginning, and when the chord change happens I use a guitar instead before it ends on a really nice triumphant note. I would've loved to written more songs like this because wow is it a good one. And just like that, that's the end of the album.
