barely made the train

So the other day, I thought I should be just on time to catch the train.  I walk up with this other guy to the ticket machine, and we could see it about a minute away.  But then some lady tells us the machine is out of order and we have to use the one at the other end of the station.  So we run over there.  We have about 30 seconds now.  He starts using the machine and pays with cash - a wrinkled dollar bill and quarters.  Then the train is about 5 seconds away, and get to the machine and print my ticket, and walk onto the train while the doors were open.  Barely made it.
