MISSING THE TRAIN
The train I was travelling on was already half an hour late. I had arranged to arrive in Vienna
at 7.15 in time to catch the 7.25 train to Paris, but there was no hope of that now. I explained
the situations to the ticket collector who advised me to get off two stops before Vienna
Central Station and take a taxi. When the time came, he even helped me with my luggage. He
wished me good luck as I jumped off, and a few minutes late I was racing towards the centre
of the city in a taxi. It was almost 7.25 when we stopped outside the station, paid the driver
quickly,
seized
my bags and hurried inside. “Paris train?” was all I had time to say to the
first official I saw. You could imagine my disappointment when he pointed to a train that was
just moving out of the station at great speed!
