At the Railroad Station
Samuel: I want a ticket to Springfield, Ohio. What is the fare, please?
Ticket agent: It's 6.80 dollars one-way - 11 dollars and 50 cents -
return.
S: When does the next train leave?
T.a.: There is a train at 4:10. There's also another at 7:20 this evening.
S: They are both good trains, I suppose - through trains, I mean?
T.a.: The 4:10 is an express and makes only one stop in New Heaven. It arrives in Springfield at 9:30. The second is a local one and takes about an hour and a half longer.
S: Is there a dining car on both trains?
T.a.: There is a diner on the 4:10. The 7:20 has just a club car. They serve sandwiches and coffee, drinks, etc.
S: May I have a timetable, please? My wife is going to do considerable travelling during the next few weeks. By the way, what is the cost of a Pullman seat to Springfield?
T.a.: There's no Pullman on the 7:20 -just day coaches. The 4:10 has a Pullman, but I doubt whether there are any seats available on today's train - unless you have a reservation. Was your wife planning to leave today?
S: Not necessarily. She hasn't quite made up her mind whether to leave today or tomorrow. It just occurred to me, however, that it was rather a long trip and it might be more comfortable riding in the Pullman...
T.a.: There isn't a thing available for today, but there may be some last-minute cancellations. Anyway, a Pullman seat to Springfield will cost you 3 dollars and 20 cents in addition to the regular fare.
S: I guess, it's necessary to make a reservation beforehand.
T.a.: It's customary to make a reservation at least a day in advance; it's safer, as far as you can see.
S: I'd like to ask you something about travelling by sleeper if I were not bothering you too much... Something my wife will definitely ask me about when I come home. The fact is that I don't know much about travelling by sleeper; I've never been in one in all my life...
T.a.: OK, what is it, Sir?
S: I understand there are two types of berths - upper berths and lower ones. Is there much difference in cost?
T.a.: Actually, as they say, the lower berths are higher and the uppers are lower: a lower berth to Springfield will cost you 2 dollars more than an upper berth.
S: I see... Is there any other difference?
T.a.: Well, probably, in the morning, if you are in a lower berth, you get up, and if you are in an upper berth, you get down.
S: I suppose, the lower berth is more comfortable. That's why it costs more, isn't it? T.a.: Some people claim they prefer an upper berth. They say, they sleep better because there's less noise and disturbance from people passing up and down the aisle. I should say, it's a matter of taste and pocket-book.
S: Thanks a lot. You've been very helpful.
T.a.: Don't mention it. That's what we're here for. Will you take a ticket?
S: Maybe, later, after my wife makes up her mind as to the day of departure.
