We were about to embark at Dover, when (David
Cantrell) came up to me and whispered:

I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about the supposedly-vast

Exactly. catching a plane to Canada involves it being on of that
vast-number for at least part of the journey.

So, which station do I go to to catch a train to Alaska or California, or
Toronto?
