“Welcome to the village of Changeville.” The conductor said on the loudspeaker. “This is the end of the line for the Old Train. If you wish to continue your journey, you must deboard this train and walk across to the other platform and board the New Train.”
The Old Train arrived at the platform in Changeville. Passengers got off the train, and they walked to the New Train.
“All aboard!” The conductor of the New Train shouted.
The locomotive and the cars on the Old Train were starting to rust. The locomotive and cars on the New Train were very shiny. The old Train was never going to run again, but the New Train was beginning a brand new journey. They said goodbye to the Old Train and hello to the New Train.
Wishing Everyone a Happy New Year.
