1. Young dude, obviously running late, a lucky fluke that he has enough cash in his backpack
2. Middle-aged woman, sweet smile, prefers personal interaction with conductor over the cold indifference of a machine
3. Older man, incredibly tan (Bahamas? Arizona?), wearing madras shorts and a polo shirt, could literally not care less about $6
