ehhh I have positive memories of my whole extended family riding a sleeper train, but I was a child and also have positive memories from that period of playing in a large pile of dirty sand.

I saw in video that in some really rural and mountainous areas they kept the slow train service so villagers can transport their livestock to the city markets, so the whole narrative this article gives doesn't even make sense.
