Unfortunately, when I got stuck in ____ traffic, or the train was ____ or it took ____ to go ____ security, I missed flights.

However, when I got to the train station to go to the airport, I found that they were ____ repairs on the line and there was a bus to ____ the train – a very old, slow one.
