    How could you possibly see them if you are 'driving' the train?

    A train driver will need to walk past/through people on the platform/train etc. to start driving the train, no?

    Only travel on trains in first class. Prefer Virgin trains or similar and like to reserve seats so we know where we're sitting. Have been known to say to the missus 'NOISY IN HERE ISN'T IT?' rather loudly if other passengers are annoyingly/unreasonably loud accompanied by a beaming smile in their direction. Usually works.
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    I see them as I get on or off the train, I see them as they get on or off the train.

    I see them as I walk through the train.

    I see them when the train is stopped at signals/stations etc

    I see them as they are waiting at stations.

    I see them as they are walking along the track.

    I see them everywhere!

    As regards to seeing them on the train itself....I drive suburban routes, so the train is probably stationary about 30% off the time! What with stopping at signals/ stations etc.

    I'd be most worried if the train driver didn't actually see these things!

    I also hear them shouting singing arguing fighting throwing up etc.

    Thank god im retiring next summer at 60.
