Yes, it is my final question. I find trains to be a safe, efficient and fabulous way to travel. More people should be on them. On a very rare occasion - once - I had to make a 999 call from the train because of the actions of another passenger. Occasionally, you see someone losing the rag or someone who is possibly under the influence of drugs, but it is tricky to go down to the bathroom or to the other end of the carriage to make a call. It would be great if there was a text facility to be able to text - there is a new name for the person who travels on the train.
