Train Ettiquette

However, I'm wondering if anyone else is frustrated with the following types of behaviours on the train, or whether it is just understood and unnoticed, that these simple gestures of kindness no longer exist
- People pushing in front of you to be first on the train, just as the train arrives, when you have been waiting patiently at that spot for some time
- Men sitting next to you with their legs spread far apart, so they take up half of your seat.
- High School students who pay a portion fare and still sit down
- People talking loudly on their mobiles
- People who have sat the entire trip, not waiting until those who have stood the entire trip get off the train.
Am I the only one?

I couldn't agree more.
The other day I was on the train, heading into the city for Uni and there was this Male ages about 17 sitting in the Priority seating, the train was packed being that time of the morning. This heavily pregnant women entered the train and stood in front of him, 2 separate people asked him if he would stand so the women could sit and he just looked up at them, pointed at his ear phones which were blasting music and then carried on starring into space.
This sort of behaviour is disgusting and the youth of today show absolutely NO respect for anyone
