Text: The Transport in London

Dear grandmother,

How are you ? It’s three o’clock and I am at home because I haven’t got any lessons today. I am back from school excursion to the London transport. We went there with our history teacher. We saw a lot of buses drown by horses. I suppose they existed when you were a little girl. We also learned a lot of things about the London underground train : It is more than one hundred years old and it works with electricity of course. But our teacher explained to us that the first underground train were steam trains. I suppose it was very dirty in this old days. Our teacher wants us to write an essay about transport in London in 1920’s. Can you help me ? I know you’ve got some photos and postcards. Please send them to me !

Goodbye for now. Write back.

Love from Sandy.
