At the Train Station
Tickets, platforms, missed trains, refunds.
One situation, many conversations
In real life “At the Train Station” isn’t one conversation. It’s the time it went smoothly, the time something went wrong, the time you had to ask one more question. Each one uses different words, so each one is practised on its own.
