Along for the ride

Love this. My friend Barrett takes an unexpected trip. Who hasn't done something stupid like this? Here's a snippet from his blog post:

I'm walking along the platform, trains on both sides. The only people I see are the ones on the train, but as I check through the windows I don't see my friends. I decide to hop on for some quiet. Right away, just inside the open door it's amazingly calm. I can hear a voice from my phone.

-Where are you?
-I got on the train on track 7. Are you on it?
-Is that the train to Ravinia?
-I don't know. Uh, the doors are closing.
-The doors are closing?
-Yeah, they are closed and I can't open them. The buttons aren't working. The train is moving.
- THE TRAIN IS MOVING? BARRETT, GET OFF THE TRAIN!
-I don't think I can.
-Where are you going?
-I don't know.
