Pub on a train at Waterloo. London, 1949.

@bo66ie29 How lovely and genteel. Port and lemon, please.

Weirdly saw a video on this a few days ago. Wasn't really a success. or as Minister David Callaghan put it "Nobody likes these tavern cars except for the public".

Lucky to even get a seat these days.

How civilised. What a contrast to 2025 train travel in the UK with most passengers' heads glued to their smartphones.

@DaveAtherton20 Western civilisation peaked, what were the factors in its slow demise?

Amazing. Totally built for comfort and all mod cons back then.

@Olgachristie What a civilized country it once was. And how sad to live through its passing.
