1Contrary to popular belief, the person who operates the train is called the engineer, not the conductor. Don’t ever call the engineer the conductor—especially if the engineer is your uncle Tony!

2If I say ‘your clock is running slow’, I mean that less time has passed on your clock as compared to my clock. So if we both start our clocks at 1 pm, and later my clock says 1:10 pm but yours only says 1:08 pm, then your clock is ‘running slow’ compared to mine. I’ve avoided using numbers in the train example to emphasize the concepts alone.
