Below is a link to an article that explains the charateristics of the train that still creates a great sense of 'romantacism.'. Kate Matthams talks about the differences and simlarities to automotive transport as well as the depiction of trains in films. She also comments upon the lack of 'romantacism' with trains that do not arrive of time, comparing our delapidated railway network to that of the efficient central Europian countries. She also talks the effect of the environment or 'Associatve Bandwidth' of the cabin, and likens a good carriage to them described in Agatha Christie's, 'Murder on the Orient Express.' Kate also talks of the adventure associated with taking time to get somewhere, being able to sleep and arrive at your destination in 'tip-top' shape for the beginning of the of the day.
