Travel Commentary

 German passenger trains used to be 'classic' travel situations.

You'd board....on time...leave on time, and sit in a respectful cabin (6 seats).

The windows opened (if you needed fresh air).  Yeah, there was no  AC  unit.

A guy would roll a cart around later...selling you a beer, wine or Coke.

Sound-proofed?  Well...moderately.

Somewhere in the 1990s....the ultra-modern crap came, and 'classic' got dumped.

The biggest whine?  Mostly over the cabin being 'cornered' by older ladies who in December...had the heat up around 32C in the cabin.
