Most of the description of coach travel reminds me strongly of how little it apppears to have changed from the time of the story 'Night Bus' written by Samuel Hopkins Adams, and filmed so memorably as 'It happened One Night' in 1934 starring Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0025316/ or http://www.filmsite.org/itha.html)
