Literally. I'm just sitting here wondering if European trains have a first class section or something.

The only eggs you'll find on an American train come in the form of a used tampon left on the floor...

They do have first class. But the on board restaurant (if there is one) is accessable for all, not only 1st class travelers.

But in some trains, 1st class also includes service to your seat, while peasants need to walk to the restaurant car.

Which means only that lazy rich passengers miss an opportunity to start conversation and score in the restaurant car.

Uhhh Amtrak has both First Class as well as Diner Cars with eggs lol. It’s just so slow and shitty that you’ve never bothered to be on it.

We paid a tiny bit more on a german train for dinner, fresh fish iirc and it was delicious, served by a waiter, god the railways in the uk are shit.

Do English trains have actual food anymore, even in first class? It's been years since I travelled first class.
