Well, it's pretty clear this is a heavy Metal environment. The Metal element, one of the five Feng Shui elements that help to define the energy of a space, can be seen everywhere. As the primary external material of the steel shiny train as well as the interior doors, steps, row dividers, and frames for windows, it is impossible to miss the element.
There are other elements apparent too. The blue single and double seats and the various windows represent Water -- which further supports the idea of motion and flow. Earth and Wood are barely existent, with occasional square and column shapes sprinkled throughout the train car. Not much energy for stability or growth here.
Fire, on the other hand, is the next most evident element on this train, although it varies in strength and is always temporary. People represent the element of Fire -- a very active element that generates a lot of energy or Chi. There is definitely a shift in the energy of the train as people board and exit the train. For instance, right now, close to the last stop, the energy is much more still, despite the fact we are traveling at great speeds to get to our destination.
So, bottom line, does the Feng Shui on the train support its transportation goal? The answer of course is yes. With the orderly, functional nature of Metal and the "on the go" energy of Fire, this aligns with the need to deliver people from point A to point B on time, and moving people on and off the train.
While I may not always enjoy the aesthetics of my train ride, I can see how the train's Feng Shui supports the "intention" of public transportation.
