it's time to change the cars for new ones and try not to be late to service the train. railway carriage
Train was way too warm inside. It was 36° outside today and was stifling in the train. Air conditioning needs to be improved.
It was okay I guess. We had a delay for 30 minutes. I booked two tickets and the seats were not next to each other but we sat next to each other.
