Re: An interesting experience in train.

I agree with u, loud music on the ear phones???!!!&&&*** come on.

Last weekend I was returning to Zurich from geneva with my 2 yr old and my parents and I think at CHUR or some station got in a group of young (rather trying to look young middle aged) boys and girls got in around9:30 pm. They looked like they were on the way to a pub/dancing club. After 10 minutes of getting in they decided that they could start one in the train. They took out bottels of bozze and portable speaker and started a small party there. By which time my son was fast sleep after a long day out. I told them once politely and once very curtly to put their music down and every time I spoke to them they would turn down their music for 10 mins and then it would go up. In comes tickets checker....flirts with the girls and dances or rather jives to the music and leaves. When I confront him he tell me that they are having a good time and if I want quite I must sit in the quite compartment (with a 2 yrs old ...roll my eyes). I am sure if I went there someone would have pointed out to me that it was a quite compartment.Not a single person that asked them to bring it down. Even 2 military guys sitting next to me.

All this in a country that frowns on you when you baby cries in a bus or a tram. I am sorry....but one more time somebody stares at my son when he talking loud or singing and they had it from me. After that incident I don't think anyone has the right to point fingers at a 2 yr old being a 2 yr old.
