Noisy babies and preschoolers on the quiet carriage

[themueslicamel]

Ok, 2nd night running that people have boarded the quiet carriage on the train with children who have either screamed or ran up and down.

Now I have no problem with children, I used to be one and have three of my own, but AIBU to think that on a train with 8 carriages, 2 of them clearly marked from the outside as quiet ones should be avoided if you have babies and preschoolers?

It left from the start of the line, so it's not as if it pulled in and by chance happened to be where you were standing?

YANBU. I'd be irritated too. If like you say, beginning of the line so choice of carriages, parents chose to sit with young noisy kids in the quiet carriage I'd find this rude and self entitled. If on the other hand it was a packed train then I'd still be irritated that would be me just being mardy!

yanbu people like this are selfish, but that is assuming there were no seats else where, but they could keep their snowflakes entertained in some shape or form.

YANBU it defeats the purpose of the carriage and you would be well within your rights to contact the operator or ask the family to sit elsewhere

It was a the 17:04 from a busy London station but there were plenty of seats and this carriage was no more or less crowded than the others.

Yesterday when a lady in a outer seat got up to let someone in the inner seat out, the delightful little shit angel ran and stole her seat!

People are paying thousands of pounds a year for this service.....

YANBU the quiet carriage is for people who can be, and want to sit in, quiet.
