What a lovely post; it sounds great. I take trains back home frequently, but they're only about 3 hours in duration. I'd very rarely talk to people; it almost seems like a taboo.

Glad you enjoyed it. When you are in one of the cars that invite socialization: the observation car, the bar, smoking car, then it is permissible to engage a stranger in conversation. If you are sitting in your seat (at any time) it is generally frowned upon. In this sense, it's very similar to this post about Greyhound travel that ecib posted. Safe travels
