Well Mitch if the train gets stuck in a snow drift at least you will have some entertainment if she can play or a source of fuel if she can't

Amazingly, I´ve got a seat on the late Friday afternoon intercity out of the Hague. This is a first. I see only one person standing in first class. I´ve even got one of the sparsely provided electricity sockets.
A very attractive girl with a cello is sitting in the in-betweeny area at the end of the carriage. I hope she starts playing.
Something must yet go wrong.
