The family coach on a Swiss train, they are equipped with a small play area (a slide on this one)

  1. Weird that they didnt clean up the splatted kid at the bottom of the slide for this picture. Seems like a nice area though.

  2. I take it that this would only be on Inter-City or long distance trains, and not just the likes of short hop commuters and the like.

  3. Trains in Switzerland are absolutely ridiculous, between those children areas, the fact that the 2nd class is more comfortable than most other European countries 1st class, the punctuality, the density of the network, the sheer frequency of trains, the infotainment system like in planes…

    Hell, Südostbahn even has a fucking [escape game](https://unterwegs.sob.ch/de/stories/tre) on their Gotthard line.

    Sadly the price is ridiculous as well, better get a GA.

  4. Unfortunately these play areas are not cleaned very well some of the time. Last two times I did not want to let my child play there. It was rancid.

    Oh look, there’s even a pole for the mom to play! A true play area for the whole family!

  6. Its always really funny when the train is filled with commuters early in the morning and there are people in business suits sitting on the slide & stairs because no space elsewhere.
