You step up to a large sign by one of the ticket-masters and it features various directions, states, city destinations, the population for each city, and the distance in time and cost for the ticket to each city. You stand in line, and when it is your turn, the ticket-master looks at you from behind the iron-grate and asks, "Where to?" And, then, "Do you have the money for your ticket?" Or, are you in the wrong line. Did you just get off a train?
