Jamming their crimson reflections against the windows

I have been commuting by bus and tram earlier this week, because we have got so much new snow that riding the bicycle would have been rather hard. But also trams have had trouble, and once I got stuck in a tram car which couldn't continue to the next stop because other tram cars had got stuck there due to electrical failures. So, all the passengers had to go out in the middle of a street filled with cars.

Like a reversal occurring in the poles

I commuted by bus and tram today, and it was a smart thing, as I was rather tired at the end of day, and sitting in a car in a traffic jam would have been a nightmare. The bus was also slow, but I didn't need to be sharp, and I almost fell asleep.
