As a foreigner on a Chinese train I usually have to undergo a form of polite interrogation before I can have a meaningful conversation with a stranger.

作为一个乘坐中国火车的外国人，在我可以与陌生人展开有意义的谈话之前，我通常都得先被客气地予以一番讯问。

Life is like a train gallops, opportunities and fate make many passengers stranger met on the road, met intersect, friend.

人生就象一列急驰的火车，机遇和缘分会让许多素昧平生的乘客，在旅途中相遇、相识、相交、相知。

Talk to a stranger, a fellow passenger on a train or your child-hood crush, they won't mind (I'm not sure about your crush, though).

去和陌生人、一起坐火车的乘客或者童年时的女神/男神交谈，他们不会介意的（不过我不确定你的女神/男神介不介意）。
