Or  going home on the late nite dinky and walk thru the smoker full of that 
wacky  tobacco you would float between cars. Often good peek shows as well.

As Paul Harvey used to say "the rest of the story" as smelly and eye  
watering as working the smokers on a dinky could be; there was the other  
side..... There was nothing like walking into a full coach,eastbound in the  
morning and getting a full waft of a couple dozen or more perfumes. It was  
better 
than a cosmetic counter at a store. Fully more fragrant than any  florists. 
And then there was eye appeal of the seat occupants wearing the  perfumes !

No need to go to a bar to meet the  opposite sex. Pretty young female 
support staff, in the age before computers,  and young,or even middle aged 
males 
dressed in tailored dark blue uniforms  with all the attributes of 
authority. Well let's just say many a trainman met  his wife on a dinky.
