[OOC:  Wait!  The train hasn't arrived yet.  It is only slowing down to
safely move through the town and approach the station.  I will put in
the post Wednesday morning describing its arrival.  For now, you can
see things out the window, and the train is still moving. 

Do you want to re-write the last post, or will Kadyn be wrong about
being there? ]




[OOC: I can see it working even if they're not there yet.]

Amber grabbed his hand, accepting his help up.
