How will Kate travel to New York?

M: Hi, Kate. Have you any plans for the weekend?
W: Yeah, I’m really excited, Jack. I’m going up to New York City for a couple of days.
M: My roommate’s going to New York, too. Are you driving? Maybe you two could ride together.
W: No, I’m going to take a train to the Plain Station. I’ve already got my ticket.
M: So what are you going to do in New York?
W: I’m visiting a friend I met last summer at the music camp. I shared a camp with Laura and she’s just moved to Manhattan. So I’m going up to see her new place.
M: You two probably have a lot to talk about? Didn’t you tell me you were from New York?
W: No, I’m from California. I’ve never been to New York before. We are going to hear an opera at Lincoln Center on Saturday night.
M: Wow, I wish I were going with you.
