Also, people who just have their mobile phones etc blaring out the music for everyone to hear. Why do people feel the need???
If you are one of these people, I would be really intrigued to know your views!!

I totally agree. This is one of my pet peeves too.
People have already listed many annoying things that will irritate you on a train journey but things like kids screaming can't be helped. People that talk loudly on their phones don't realise how loud they are. But the blaring of music is blatant and if I was on a long journey I'd have to ask them to turn it off.
Would they like it if I sat next to them and started reading my favourite book out loud?
At least the people with headphones are trying to be considerate

WEll now they have quiet trains dedicated to those who do not wish to hear this which is a good idea, still these people (and one of them is not me) should buy some headphones that keep the music in and do not let the music out. They are pricey, but if I was a headbanger I would as I know most 80 year olds are not into Emimen!!

Cos they want 2 look cool and losten 2 their music loudly, that's why they are deaf and have to shout into their mobiles to hear themselves.

coz on the tube or on the bus you wanna block out the sound of people talking loudly and screaming kids. it makes the journey less boring when ur listening to music.

this is done so the people can distance themselves from all the strangers on the train with them
"im not listening to where i am, ive got u2 in my ears instead"
fear of new people and/or confrountation

MUST BE THE SAME PEOPLE THAT SHOUT WHEN THEY'RE TALKING ON A MOBILE, SO EVERYONE ELSE CAN HEAR THEIR CONVERSATION!
