Could you tell me if this is RailEuro Train Station?
Traveler: Excuse me Sir, but I think I’m lost. Could you tell me if this is Rail Euro Train Station?
National: Well, you are at the Dolce Train Station right now young lady.
Traveler: Oh no, I was looking for the RailEuro Train Station because I’m bound to board there.
My mother gave me a reservation on that train.
National: Oh I see, well it’s a bit far from here a total of 10 blocks in all. You have to cross at
the other side of the road and walk straight this point up to that point of exit from this train
station and cross the pedestrian lanes, and then you’ll see shuttle services at the corner of the
road, going to RailEuroTrain Station. It’s their promo right now.
Traveler: Thank you so much, I thought I’ll truly get lost.
National: Well now you’re not, but I’m sure you’ll soon be, because you’ll be missing the shuttle
service if you don’t hurry. I just got off from there, and I think it will be leaving in a matter of
10 minute’s time.
Traveler: Ah sure, if that’s the case I really got to be going.
National: Wait! I heard that lady in red is going there too; you could follow her, or you could ask
if you could walk along with her, so you wouldn’t get lost again.
Traveler: Thanks for your concern, Sir.
National: Oh, that’s nothing; it’s our responsibility to help tourists like you fi nd their way around
here.
Traveler: You’re very nice, indeed! I wish all the people from here are as nice as you. Sir, Thank
you so much for your kindness. God bless you!
