Can you talk in the quiet coach?

If you're in the quieter coach, please keep the noise down. Music through headphones should be kept quiet enough as to not disturb other passengers and conversations should be conducted quietly. If you do have to make or take a call, please move into the end of the coach through the doors before dialling or answering.

By the time a train operator sees you, it is too late to stop the train in time. An oncoming train is moving faster and is closer to you than it appears. Similar to an airplane traveling at 150 mph that appears to float onto the runway, it's hard to determine a train's speed and distance from you.

Economy seats may also be called coach, standard or main cabin seats. These seats are generally narrower than in other classes (from about 40 to 48 centimetres wide). The distance between seats (front to back) ranges from 76 inches to 86 centimetres so there is less legroom than in Business or First class.
