a trip by train

"Yes, sir. 6 dorllars one person"
"to Clinton? Ok, get off the train at Westbrook and cross the overbridge to go the other side. 2 minutes later, the train to Clinton will come."

Yes, so kind he is! On the way to Clinton, we met the conductor, a warmhearted gentlman. Anytime he seemed to give you help if you need. Accasionally, one week later when we took the train again, he identified us and say "hello" to everybody. Oh, you know it is impossible for you to meet the same case. Since there are always too many passengers in the train, so that to remember one passenger is an impossibe task for one conductor.

Yes, it is true. In my country, train is one of the important transporting instruments for people's journey. Then, most of the time you will find that it is always crowded. It is believed that the whole globe has seen the report about the Spring Festival Travel in China. At that moment, everybody will know that how important the train is.

For most of Americans, cars are always the primary choice for their travel, since the interstate highway is very convenient. Thus, out of the city you will seldom see one person is walking along the road, except for the tourists like us. To be frank, taking the train becomes a kind of enjoyment.

However, there is one point that I want to say more here.  By comparison, America's railway system is not as advanced as that in China, especially with the swift developement of high-speed railway in China.
