Education English | Narrative Text : The Railway Coach | Tim had been given a train set on his sixth birthday. It had a signals , tracks to lay out on the floor, a red engine to pull the train, trucks for goods and one lovely blue passengers coach. Tim liked the passenger coach best of all.
Tim liked to slide the roof off the coach, Then he was able to reach inside and feel the soft seats . The little tables had a tiny lamp on them. But he wished he had passengers to ride inside the coach.
Time passed. Tim grew up.Now the coach was dented and the doors were hanging off.
" What can we do with this old thing?" he asked his girlfriend. " Do you think it is any use to anyone?"
"Put in this box of things for the jumble sale" said his girlfriend, "Someone may buy it"
"But it has no wheels!" said Tim. "Suil, I suppose you never know! come along, we must be going"!
Tim and his girlfriend sold lots of things at the jumble sale. But nobody wanted the old passenger coach.
"You know, " said Tim. "when I was boy. I always wished I had some passengers to go inside!
Later a lady and a girl were close by" No good for your hoping for a doll's house, amy"! the lady was saying," Besides , where could we keep it?"
Amy pointed at the coach, " What is over there?" asked
"This? smiled Tim. "It is only an old passenger coach!"
"Look!" cried amy. " It has tables with lamps and seats which fold down to make little beds ! It will make a lovely house form my dolls!
" And we can certainly find room for it in our little home"! said mommy.
"And I always wanted to see passengers in that coach!" said Tim.
Amy smiled. She could not wait to get the coach home.
Very soon the cold coach was looking almost as good as new! It still had no wheels, but Amy did not mind. After all with her dolls living inside, it was not going anywhere, anymore. But what a lovely home it made for them.
