If there is a direct train, it is usually the fastest way to travel from A to B in Britain.
A stopping train stops at a lot of smaller stations between main stations. An express (train) provides a faster service to your destination, and avoids the problem of traffic jams on the bus services.
For rail travel, you might need a single or a return ticket. Many people buy a travel card, which allows them to travel on any bus or train in a specific area for a period of time for less money. A bus pass lets you do the same for bus routes. You can buy rail tickets online, from a ticket machine or at the ticket office I booking office in the station.
If you get a train or bus In time, you catch it. If you are late, you may miss it. You may need to change trains or buses.

იდიომა "ყურების ჩამოყრა"  ნიშნავს დასევდიანებას, მოწყენას. To be down in the mouth. The illustration (by Kote Iantbelidze) describes the idiom in a very direct (to throw down the ears), humoristic way.

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you're having a wonderful time now. As a Christmas gift from Japanese Santa, I made this podcast for you! I recommend you not to just listen to this, but also find differences between Christmas in your country and Japanese one and write about it on italki or talk about it to someone else (ideally in Japanese)! メリークリスマス！
