Anna: Excuse me, I need to get to Cambridge today.
Advisor: Would you like to go by train or by bus? Anna: I am not sure, which one is better? Advisor: The bus is cheaper but also slower. It will take about two-and-a-half hours. Anna: And how long does the train take? Advisor: If you take the fast train, it will take about 50 minutes. Anna: Where do I catch the train? Advisor: The trains for Cambridge leave from King's Cross Station. They run approximately every half hour. Most trains to Cambridge go from Platform 9. Anna: How do I get to King's Cross? Advisor: The best way is to take an underground tube train directly to King's Cross. The Underground station is just round the corner from here. Anna: Can you show me on the map? Advisor: It is very easy. Just turn right when you leave and then turn right again at the first crossroads. The entrance to the Underground station is about 50 meters further on. Anna: Thank you very much. Advisor: You're welcome. |
