A moment of an embarrassment

This morning while I was travelling to work by train to Preston, a lady next to me talking to her companion about if there is a drink and snack trolley in this train, so she said I’ll ask the conductor, the conductor replied there’s no snacks services in this train all the way to York and that’s two hours of travelling, but she said they could come off the train for a couple of minutes at Preston and she make sure that the train doesn’t leave without them, alternatively they could wait till they arrive at Bradford, at that point the passenger said “Bradford! No no Bradford is iffy “the conductor replied “I live in Bradford” there was a moment of dead silence, then a burst of laughter from everyone, while the lady covering her face from the embarrassment.
