Yes. If you can have a conversation with a willing fellow passenger that rest of carriage doesn't have to hear, go for it.
Not doing anything which bothers others shld be the default position when trapped in a small box with lots of people.

but your asking people not to talk because you like silence.
-
that bothers people because there's nothing wrong with talking to someone in a normal volume.

If you want noise, have headphones. Doesn't affect others.. Equivalent would be if I read my book out loud cos I wanted to read.
-
nobody is asking for noise. big difference between having a conversation and making noise.
-
no that's not an equivalent because your talking to yourself.
-
what purpose does that serve when you can hear your own voice in your head?
-
I can't if people are talking. I'll need to speak over them.
-
really? unless someone is shouting you can hear your own voice.

I'm on a train right now with a carriage all talking, baby crying next to me, and I can hear my own voice.

Good for you. My husband can also concentrate amid noise coz he had big family & small house. Shouldn't assume everyone can cope
