Continuing my train series: last week Joe mentioned being squashed onto a British train. It reminded me of this, although I’m fairly sure they haven’t gone to these extremes in the UK
Right - I can’t imagine British people putting up with that. It’s interesting that the Japanese do. I can’t imagine how hot and crowded it must be on those trains…yikes!
