The perils of working on the train

You get so engrossed in what you're doing that you miss your stop

I love watching people working on trains. Had much fun observing someone, who had no idea how to use powerpoint, trying to create a slide deck. Have read many financial reports and confidential emails. People seem to think that no-one's looking when they work in a public place.

Haha, this is my hobby. I used to work on the train, but over recent years I seem to have acquired some motion sickness so I tend not to now. Especially if I'm not being paid for the time.

I've occasionally intended to work on the train but I enjoy looking out of the window too much

It's even preferable on the tube...

Or that you can't see what they are looking at;

Or no one is listening when on their phone.

The only thing I ever knew about my Great-Grandfather was that he worked on the trains and was killed by being crushed between two buffers. Ewww.

I think that beats your peril.

It tends to be dark when I'm on the train so, whenever I look out the window, I am greeted by the unsettling vision of a rather befuddled looking middle aged woman with bed hair.
