I've not ridden Amtrak, just Caltrain, but as regards UK trains the answer is that background noise doesn't matter.
People generally talk loud enough to happily hear each other over any background noise. They tend not to notice, either.
As such, when businesspeople consider the quiet car somewhere for meetings because everywhere else has noise, everyone in the car hears exactly what they are discussing.
- shanelja 14y agoI'm on the bus at the moment on the way to work, I use a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge in my personal time, it's a decent machine and was within my budget at the time I bought it, but I agree, the keyboard can be extremely loud in quiet areas, but that's one of the reasons I like it. My iMac at work has a nearly silent keyboard and it drives me up the walls, being so used to developing in my spare time on a loud machine.
