Abstract

Working in the train is a part of New Ways of Working and is also a way to attract more passengers from the car into the train. However, it is unknown which is the ideal working position. Moreover, the ideal position for reading and relaxing is also unknown. Therefore, in this study the observations, and later on performed experiments, will lead to requirements for future train seats to enable working, relaxing and reading in comfortable postures.
