Station manager: Good afternoon. How can I help you?
Makayla: Hello … Erm … yes. I’ve just missed my train!
Station manager: Ah. Where are you going?
Makayla: To Manchester.
Station manager: Ah yes. That was the 16:20.
Makayla: What time’s the next one?
Station manager: Let’s see. The next train to Manchester leaves at 17:15 from platform 2.
Makayla: 17:15 … so that’s quarter past five … platform 2. What time does it get to Manchester?
Station manager: At 18:30.
Makayla: Half past six … erm … Can I use the same ticket?
Station manager: Just a moment, please. Can I see your ticket?
Makayla: Yes, here you are.
Station manager: Ah, sorry, no ... You can’t use this ticket on the 17:15 train.
Makayla: Really? Why not?
Station manager: This ticket is valid on trains before 5 and after 7 o’clock. During rush hour tickets are more expensive.
Makayla: Oh … do I have to buy another ticket?
Station manager: Yes, well, I can change your old ticket for a new ticket. Your ticket cost £7.50 and the new ticket is £11.00. So you just pay the difference, which is £3.50.
Makayla: Ah, OK, erm ... What platform is it from?
Station manager: Platform 2. Just over there, on the other side.
Makayla: OK, thanks. Bye.
Station manager: All right. Bye bye!

Yes I did, the most unplesurable journey, in train, that I've had it was in the Netherlands. I was going with my family from Amsterdam to a province in the south and in the way the train run over something. The train had to stop, we waited a really long time. After a that, the train began to work again, but no one said what had happend, not even one word.
Yes, of cours. I very like travelling by train. My fist journey had been really amazing by train. My family and I went to Odesa in Ukrain. I think it's so fantastic.
I really enjoy traveling by train. I did it a lot while on vacation by the sea because it is a very fast, safe and convenient form of transport. Once upon a time, while traveling by train, I had an unpleasant situation. the toddler was running around the compartments and screaming very loud and the worst part was that his mom didn't pay attention to it, luckily it took me half the way because they got out at some point.
Yes, I enjoy travelling by train. I usually come to train station on time, because I leave my home beforehand, but once I've missed my train, because on my way to a train station I've got stucked in traffic jam. I live in suburb so I need some time to get city and to take a tram to a railway station. That day was December 29th. It seems like a lot of people didn't work in that morming so the roads from my home to the train station were filled by vehicles. I knew I will be late in that moment, when I took my bus, but I still was hoping to be on time. I was very upset that time, because I was going to have a trip with my girlfriend. The result is she took that train alone and I took another train to my hometown where we met with her. That was a lesson to me.
I've never traveled by train,the ticket price is very expensive here and a few months ago the president closed the train due to contamination.I hope to live in England and be able to travel by train in a few years

I very like to traveling by train because it very fun when i traveling by train.
I am crazy about traveling by train, especially when the train runs on rails along the beach or twists and turns around the hills, passing through many tunnels, crossing bridges, traversing forests and tea plantations. It's so amazing! I've had a problem with my journey from Hanoi capital to Sapa city by train. At that time, while I was on the way to the train station, I suddenly remembered that I left my phone at home. It took more time to catch the train so that I missed it. I had to buy another ticket and my journey was 5 hours late.
