Don't know if anyone else has seen this, quite funny.

Probably annoying for some but most of the commuters joined in.

Wonderful - so glad everyone joined in - bet it was a great journey!

It's good to know that some of the joys of train travel still exist. I've joined in a few sing-a-longs in the past (particularly on the boat train that used to run between Liverpool and Harwich once per day) but not for many years.

Actually you've reminded me just how much I enjoyed some journeys on that train. I was travelling on it just before Christmas from Sheffield to Ipswich, and got into conversation with a delightful elderly lady sitting opposite me. However she appeared very 'upright' in her manner so wasn't too sure that she'd appreciate me drinking booze. As I reached for a can, I said "I hope you don't mind . . .". She just smiled and said "I've got a better idea . . . " and pulled a full bottle of scotch from her bag, together with two glasses ;-)

Once you get out of the Capital on that Line, it's all too easy to lose the will to live so good for him for livening it up for a while!

Lol, That's my kind of passenger.

[ummmm]

Funny..

I saw this the other day - the guy has a good voice.

I was on the first train of the subway, temporarily stopped. Empty train, except for a group of subway singers practicing for the day.

The subway conductor then opens the door and says, "That was pretty good guys, but what about a little Sam Cooke?" The conductor starts singing, as the subway group comes up to the front of the train to join him.
