InterCity Train service

Depends on how well you sleep, but I've missed my station a few times by being truely in the land of nod!

This is a subjective experience that varies greatly between individuals. Some people are able to get a solid night sleep, others have problems with all the small little jostles and accelerations (including this traveler). Noise is usually not a factor.

I find the noise level much lower than on any plane flight. However, the jostling that often occurs when entering a train station is a different story. But how you feel about it would be a very personal experience.

Thanks for all the replies! I didn't realize that a train ride would be bumpy...something else to consider.
