Unimaginable as this may be, there are trains in Japan sporting green velour seating and wood(?) paneling. They are pristine and glorious-- a far cry from the hard plastics and vinyl we've come accustomed elsewhere to see as appropriate for public transit.
- gimboland 7y agoThe London underground has fabric seats. I wouldn't call the Tube pristine, but I appreciate not having plastic seats.
- chrisseaton 7y agoI think most trains around the world have carpet - just city subways are the exception.
- T3OU-736 7y agoCurious thing: Living vicariously through images - the regional rail around New York City, known as Metro North Railroad, uses what appears to be pretty thick vinyl on its trains, whereas CalTrans in Southern California uses cloth. Wonder why a given material was chosen.
- Gravityloss 7y agoIt never rains in Southern California?
- chrisseaton 7y agoLondon uses cloth and it rains a lot there. These trains have roofs.
