Platform, 1 Sep, two packs. Reserved board looks empty. Cousin wants us on a van that is filling in the sun. We wanted the hill train. Heat below, jumper in the bag.

Empty reserved is not a miracle train. If the board is empty, sit the van that is filling, or wait a listed train you can actually name. I will not invent reserved seats. Cousin is a cousin. Heat at the platform is shade and water, not a reason to panic.

We sat the van, arrived. Fine. Train would have been a postcard and a maybe.

Ella still has buses. Write the board at Nanu Oya, not a chat screenshot.
