>From a recent interview with Egypt's transport minister:

Q:But don't you think buffet cars and running waters are necessities on a 
15-hour journey, to Aswan for instance?

A:Those passengers who are unhappy with the service can always board a 
first-class carriage, which will have buffet carts and excellent toilet 
facilities.

(gist: passengers burning to death in overcrowded 3rd class carriages? 
It's their fault!)
