Jean:?Look out!?

Gordon: Don’t worry. That’s just a?light rail train. The new light rail system shares the road with?street traffic.?

Jean:?Phew! For a second there I thought we were going?to collide?with it.?

Gordon: Didn’t you see the?operator?seated at the front of the train? She?watches out for?other drivers.?

Jean: I didn’t know they have operators. I thought they were?automatic.?

Gordon: No, they’re not like some forms of?rapid transit.?

Jean: I see now that they ride on?tracks?and are?powered by overhead electric lines.?

Gordon: That’s right.?

Jean: I’d like to give light rail a try.?

Gordon: Really? Well,?there’s no time like the present. I’ll take you to the nearest?stop. There’s the?platform?over there.?

Jean: But I thought you agreed to give me a ride into the city.?

Gordon: And?deprive?you of a new travel experience? Never!?
