情景对话19：在火车站

19).At a Railroad Station 在火车站

            Long-distance travel by train is not as common in the United Stated
            as it many other parts of the world. Most train travel is in the
            "Northeast Corridor" linking Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
            Baltimore and Washington, D.C. Special express trains called
            "Metroliners" travel between New York and Washington, D.C. All seats
            on these trains are reserved in both coach(2nd class) and club
            car(1st class). Long-distance trains also serve major cities such as
            Atlanta, Miami, New Orleans, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and
            Seattle. Sleeping compartments are available on most long-distance
            trains and must be reserved in advance. Most trains are operated by
            AMTRAK, the national railroad corporation.
