Notice also: all vertical columns have stop pagers, instead of dangling a cord along the wall which an errant elbow can trigger
Busy trains (commuter lines, subways, etc) maximize capacity by maximizing standing room--so no columns etc in the way (ala NYC, etc)pic.twitter.com/t7xOQeCMvY

Maximizing standing room also means making it easy to go between cars--ideally, the train is like a hallway lined with sofaspic.twitter.com/Zg33cWvkVg
The overall sensation is of spaciousness and relaxation--a well-appointed antechamber, vs the lounge setting of intercity travelpic.twitter.com/QRR9fQiK89
Just find a seat and enjoy the ride
