".. the circumstances are better," she reluctantly agrees. But Alice really, really hates to say that about an entity she dislikes as much as the train, so it's followed up by: "But that is not saying much."

After all, London was the lowest of the lows, and Rutledge's even more so. Any place would be better than that, even a place like this.

In fact, it's like saying even the faintest good thing about the train makes her feel like something is pricking her skin, causing her to be a tad more honest than she'd usually be with people as she continues.

"I.. do not like being in such a small space. It reminds me of bad memories." After all, being stuck in that awful place for so long back home basically just gave her claustrophobia. "It was suffocating for me to sleep in one of those four-person cabins, so I convinced someone to room together with me in a two-person room."
