True story, I once did a job which involved a daily train commute to Huddersfield and back

and one day when I got on the train at Udders Feeled at about twenty hundred hours (long day) there was a Deep South style New Orleans jazz band doing a funeral wake thing on the train. No idea who'd bought the farm, but I was welcomed onboard, in my suit, had a tin of beer pressed into my hand from a massive cooler box thing, and all the way home this band were playing away wandering up and down the two carriages, and they were distributing booze to all the other passengers, as well as all the family and friends of the deceased on the train. Single best train journey of my life, no question.

The band were brilliant.
