Sleeping on a Night Train

In Europe, many people travel between cities on a night train. They get on the train in the evening in one city. They sleep in a small bed inside the train. In the morning, they wake up in a new city far away.

I Europa rejser mange mennesker mellem byer med et nattog. De stiger på toget om aftenen i en by. De sover i en lille seng inde i toget. Om morgenen vågner de i en ny by langt væk.

These trains have different kinds of beds. Some seats turn into simple bunks at night. Other rooms have soft beds, a little sink, and warm blankets. A worker checks the tickets early, so people can sleep without any trouble.

Disse tog har forskellige slags senge. Nogle sæder bliver til simple køjer om natten. Andre kupeer har bløde senge, en lille håndvask og varme tæpper. En medarbejder tjekker billetterne tidligt, så folk kan sove uden problemer.

Night trains are coming back across Europe today. People like them because they save time and a hotel night. The trains are also better for the air than a plane. Many travelers love to watch the dark fields and quiet towns go by before they fall asleep.

Nattog vender tilbage over hele Europa i dag. Folk kan lide dem, fordi de sparer tid og en hotelnat. Togene er også bedre for luften end et fly. Mange rejsende elsker at se de mørke marker og stille byer glide forbi, før de falder i søvn.
