OK – I thought I would lay this out, after the disgraceful incident I had this morning.
Where you have 4 train seats in a 2×2 configuration, where 1 and 2 face 3 and 4 respectively, and 2 and 4 are next to the window, the order of occupation should be one of the following combinations:
- 4, 1, 2, 3
- 2, 3, 1, 4
- 4, 1, 3, 2
- 2, 3, 4, 1
There should be absolutely no reason why 2 people sitting with 2 spares seats should be in the situation where they are sitting opposite each other, thus denying both of them decent legroom. And the first person there gets the right to the window seat, thus the ability to lean on something to sleep.
Do not break these rules, and I won’t be forced to put your head down the chemical toilet. Understood?

totally agree. BTW in a similar vein, in the Gents toilets where there are individual urinals, rather than one trough, why are there ever four? User one goes either extreme left or extreme right, user two goes as far from him as possible, this leaves user three faced with having to choose to stand next to one or the other. This sort of choice can cause a blokes brain to overload and lose contact with the bladder taking away the need to choose.

good game! i agree with the train and the urinal etiquette.
