L/S of a woman coming out of a railway station building and setting a signal. L/S of the same woman pushing a barrow with a basket on it. "All things come alike to her - whether handling luggage - punching tickets - or seeing the train off." L/S of the train arriving - it only has one carriage and looks like a car at the front.
