Never carry on at the station or you might fall onto the track. Everyone waits on the platf orm for the train to arrive.
Inside the train people are talking happily waiting for their stop.
Latecomers run to catch the train.
Some people go into the ticket of f ice to keep worm.
The train comes chugging down the track.
On the platform people gather in crowds.
Neilston station has been around for years.

Shelters at the station keep everyone dry when it rains.
The driver gives the signal and off we go.
A strong yellow light cutting through the fog tells you that the train is coming.
The doors of the train slide open and everyone climbs on.
In very bad weather the trains are cancelled.
Once inside the train everyone shows their tickets or train pass.
No one wants to miss the train.
