This headline really does come from The Railway Magazine (January 2012, p99); I didn't make it up!

Bog-in-a-bag

Nederlandse Spoorwegen, which has long been criticised for ordering new 'Sprinter' EMUs without toilets for stopping services, is now offering passengers plastic bags for emergencies.

I wonder how that enhancement might work on the also-toiletless Gautrain given their well-publicised opposition to any "pants down" on their trains? And. what would you do with the bag afterwards? You can't drop them out of the non-opening windows, that's for sure! Take it home as a "doggy bag" perhaps?
