III. Learn the following dialogue.

A.        What are slow trains and fast trains?

B.        Well, that's clear. Slow trains move slowly. It's because they stop at all the stations. Fast trains pass many stations without stopping. They only stop at very large stations.

A. I see. And that's why they move faster, don't they?

B. Of course. They are also called non-stopping trains.

A.        And slow trains are stopping trains, aren't they?

Trains

There are different kinds of trains: passenger trains, mail trains and goods trains. Mail trains carry mail, or post, that is letters, parcels, newspapers and magazines. Goods trains carry goods. Passenger trains carry passengers. Mail trains and passenger trains are usually combined: they have carriages for passengers and a special carriage or two for mail.

Passenger trains can be slow or fast. A slow train stops at every station. Fast trains have few stops: they stop only at very large stations. So we can call these trains respectively stopping trains and non-stopping trains.

There are local trains and long-distance trains. Local trains connect points situated not far away from each other, say, a hundred or two-three hundred kilometres. By a long-distance train you can travel very far — for thousands of kilometres. If you live in a large city, like St. Petersburg or Moscow or Kiev, you can go to the suburbs of the city by a suburban train.

Sometimes, when travelling a long distance, you have to change trains (or make a changing), that is get off one train and board another, if there is no through train to the place of your destination.

When you are travelling a long distance, it is very convenient to go by an overnight train. Overnight trains have sleeping accomodation: they usually have "corridor cars," i.e. carriages with separate compartments (they are called sleeping cars, or sleepers). In each compartment there are two lower and two upper berths, on which you can sleep like in bed. Trains which run by day are called day coaches. You cannot sleep in these trains: they have only sitting accomodation: very comfortable soft armchairs.

1. What are passenger trains, goods trains and mail trains?

Nick's Trip to the South and Back Last summer Nick spent his holidays in the Crimea. He went there by plane. He booked his ticket in advance. He rang up the air-travel booking office and reserved a seat for the fifteenth of July.

"Will you come for your ticket yourself or do you want it delivered?" asked the booking-office clerk.

"I'd like my ticket delivered, please," said Nick, because he did not want to waste his time going to the booking office and standing in a queue.

The plane to Yalta took off at 9 a.m., but he ha to be at the airport an hour before to register his ticket. His plane was TU-134. It is a comfortable modern plane. Nick's seat was near the porthole and he could see how they took off in St. Petersburg and landed in Yalta. They were flying at a height of six thousand metres, so Nick could see only clouds through the porthole. The hostess offered the passengers some snacks and soft drinks. The flight was very pleasant. It took Nick only three hours to get to Yalta.        

The way back wasn't so pleasant. Nick could not get a ticket for a plane. He had to stand in a long queue to get a ticket for a train. When at last his turn came, he said to the booking-office clerk:

"Please, I want a ticket to St. Petersburg for the fourth of August."

"I am sorry," said the booking-office clerk, "there are no tickets for a through train to St. Petersburg. I could give you an upper berth on a train to Moscow, and in Moscow you will have a changing."

Nick thought a little. "Oh well, that's all right," he said, "give me a ticket for the Moscow train. After all, there are a lot of trains going from Moscow to St. Petersburg every day, so I hope I will have no problems punching the ticket."

He was right. When he arrived in Moscow, he consulted the time-table and saw that there were ten trains to St. Petersburg. It did not take him long to punch his ticket. He just had time to drop into a bar and have a snack before his train started. The train was comfortable. Nick had a lower berth in a separate compartment. In the morning he was in St. Petersburg.

XII. Answer the following questions:

1. Where did Nick spend his holidays?
2. How did he travel to the Crimea?

Last summer I spent my holidays on the Azov sea. We went there by train. We booked our tickets before hand. We didn’t want to waste our time going to the booking-office and standing in a queue, that’s why we booked tickets to be delivered. The train to Yejsk left at 19 p.m. sharp. It was a through train. That’s why we didn’t have to make a changing. It was a comfortable fast train. We had one lower and one upper berth on a train. The also had sleeping accommodation, that’s why our traveling was rather pleasant. It  took us 24 hours to get to Yejsk. The weather was nice , the sea was blue and warm, the fruits were ride by that time. We lived in a hotel I not far from the sea. It didn’t take us long to get to the sea every morning. We bathed a lot, layed in the sun. There’s nothing like swimming in a blue warm sea. We really had a good time there.

The way back wasn’t so pleasant. We could not get tickets for a through train. That’s why we had to leave  a changing, besides there were difficulties in punching the tickets. We returned a little bit tired, but happy and full of strength.

They Mixed up Everything.

Three young, men came to a little station in the country and asked when the train to London was leaving. They were told that it was leaving at eight o'clock.

"Oh, we have a lot of time," said one of them. "Let's go to the bar and have a drink."

So they went to the bar, took a drink and had a very good time. They forgot about the time, and when they came to the platform, their train had left. They saw the station master on the platform. They went up to him and asked: "When is the next train to London, please?"

"Trains to London leave every hour," said the station master. "The next train leaves at nine o'clock."

"Oh, all right," said the three friends. 'We have a lot of time. Let's go to the bar and have another drink."

They went to the bar and had another drink and forgot about the time again. So when they came to the platform, they did not see the train. It had gone.

"When is the next train to London?" they asked the station master who was still on the platform.

"I have told you that trains to London leave every hour," said the station master. "The next train will leave at ten o'clock. But it is the last train to London tonight. If you miss it, you will have to wait until morning."

"Oh, it's О. К.," said the young men and went to the bar again. Of course they forgot about the time again, - "d when they came to the platform, the ten o'clock train was just leaving. They rushed along the platform trying to catch the train. Two of them ran very fast and managed to jump on the steps of the last carriage. But the third man remained on the platform.

When the station master approached him, he was very surprised to see that the man was laughing. He laughed till he cried and could not stop.

"What's the matter with you?" asked the station master. "Why are you laughing?"

"Oh," said the young man when at last he was able to speak, "Did you see those two idiots who jumped on the train? They mixed up everything! It was me who was going to London. They had only come to the railway station to see me off."

Looking for the Train.

We got to the Waterloo Railway Station at eleven and asked what platform the eleven-five to Kingston started from. Of course nobody knew: nobody at the Waterloo Railway Station ever knows what platform a train is going to start from, or where a train is going to, or anything about it. The porter who took our luggage thought it would go from number two platform, while another porter, with whom he discussed the question, had heard people say that it would go from number one. But a third porter, who came up to us, was sure that it would start from platform number five.

To put an end to the matter, we found the station master and asked him. He told us that he had just met a man who said he had seen the Kingston train at number three platform, but the people there said that they thought that train was the Southampton express, or else the Windsor local. But they were sure it wasn't the Kingston train.

Then our porter said that he thought the Kingston train must be on the high-level platform. So we went to the high-level platform, saw the engine-driver and asked him if he was going to Kingston. He said he could not say for certain, of course, but that he thought he was. If he wasn't the eleven-five for Kingston, he said, then he was pretty sure that he was the nine-thirty-two for Virginia Water, or the ten a.m. express for the Isle of White. "Anyway, you will know when you get there," he added.

We put half-a-crown into his hand and asked him to be the eleven-five for Kingston.

"Nobody will ever know on this line," we said, "what you are, or where you are going. You know the way, don't you? You start quietly and go to Kingston."

"Well, I don't know, gentlemen," replied the engine-driver, "but I suppose some train must go to Kingston, and, all right, I'll do it. Give me that half-crown."

Thus we got to Kingston.

We learnt afterwards that the train by which we had come was really the Exeter mail, and that they had spent hours at the Waterloo Station looking for it, and nobody knew what had happened to it.
