I think it's fair to say that eating on a train, even when it's done so excessively doesn't cause rowdy and/ or anti social behaviour in the way that the consumption of alcohol does. OK, people leaving uneaten food or food packaging everywhere is an issue, but this is a problem regardless of...

Sure, although noting that there are plenty of parts of the country where there aren't an overabundance of pubs to choose from, or where the choice of ales at the pub leaves a lot to be desired! Additionally if only alcohol purchased on the train could be consumed, it could be more of an...

I didn't say it is a licensed premises, I said it effectively is. Many of the same regulations apply, such as the person selling alcohol on the train is required to assess whether the purchaser is of age, and whether they are in a fit state to consume alcohol as per a staff member in a licensed...

Back in the day when I lived in Oban, it was always a bit of an eye opener getting on the 8:10 to Glasgow, which at the time was the first train of the day and finding folk cracking open the Tennants cans.

I quite enjoy the Seoul Metro jingles In particular the interchange tune is rather natty (full version below).

There's also a Ben Lomond in Tasmania that clocks in at 5,175ft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Lomond_%28Tasmania%29

Yes, it's part of the Metro tunnel project: https://metrotunnel.vic.gov.au/

This was certainly the case when the City Loop opened, but now the Hurstbridge and Mernda lines (red lines) only travel around the loop in a clockwise direction. I believe this decision was because the tunnel portal required a flat crossing in the AM to access which often resulting in delays to...

Glencruitten Golf Club is within a mile of Oban railway station. Lots of nine hole courses close to stations on the WHL as well
