Traveling by train can be so relaxing… but only if you're able to actually sit down and enjoy it. This guy was probably expecting a chill train voyage.

At the time he was living in San Diego, working in Downtown Los Angeles (that's a 175-mile per day commute). He was in the middle of studying for an exam th…
