The train filled with cold air

The train filled with cold air

Being stuck on a train is not ideal. I tried to make it home for Christmas on the train. I didn’t have another mode of transportation. The train is cheaper than flying too. So I ended up getting stuck on the train. The tracks are completely covered with snow. There is no way of removing
