Learning to Ride the Subway

Donny: Come on, we need to buy our Subway tickets at that Ticket machine.

Cayla: Why can’t we just get them at the Ticket window? I’m not sure what the Fare is.

Donny: There’s a long line and we need to catch a Train right now.

Cayla: I’ve never taken the subway before. I don’t know how it works.

Donny: Just follow me. Here, take this card and walk through the Turnstile. Put your card in this Slot and then Retrieve it as you pass through.

Cayla: Okay, now where do we go?

Donny: Let’s look at this subway map showing all of the Lines. That’s the Station we want.

Cayla: Don’t we need to get Transfers?

Donny: We don’t need transfers to take Connecting trains. Let’s see, we want the Express, not the Local train…

Cayla: Are you sure we shouldn’t just ask somebody, like a Station agent?

Donny: Good luck finding one. And plus, I don’t need one. I can figure it out. Follow me. I think that’s the right Platform.

Cayla: Are you sure that’s the right train?

Donny: Yes, and if you ask me another question, you can continue this conversation with those Tracks!
