Mark and Bill did WELL this week.

I was truly surprised at the whole "city bus/trolley" mentality on the train. I wasn't expecting that at all, the other times I've been on a train it was not like that. Having people standing in the stairwell/aisles/etc. couldn't have been safe, but they were crammed in there like sardines. The conductor announced that you "do not buy a *seat* on the train, just a *ride* on the train". Makes it much easier to understand how so many people get hurt during train crashes.
