It slightly amuses me when they say on the PA either, "I will be
making my way through the train" or "if you need any assistance I am
located near the middle of the train" even though you just had to
fight your way into the carriage.

Forget travelling to another carriage; forget swinging a cat; you
may be able to move a small animal such as a rat or mouse if you
greased it sufficiently.  Needless to say the guard is never seen.

Cheers,
Andy
