Your description of life on the ordinary class British train reminds me of a discussion I had with a friend some time ago. It was when the idea had been proposed that MPs be made to travel in the ordinary carriages rather than first class. To do with their expenses i think it was. My point was it would be best for MPs to experience travel like the rest of us have to put up with : - only then could/would something be done to improve the situation. My friend disagreed, saying that MPs would only be able to do work on the journey if they were in the first class carriages. Neither was able to sway the other towards their point of view and so we agreed to differ.
