I have been on train for 1 day. When I finally reached my destination and came to home, I felt a little shaky. When I sit quietly and try to read a book, it seems like I am still in train and I still get shakes and jerks.

The shakes vanishes on the second day of return.

Any explanation how we get such shakes?

Maybe similar to the "sea legs" effect of being on a boat for a long time. I think that has to do with inner-ear balance adjusting to the motion of the boat and then having to readjust to stable ground. Maybe you got "train legs." What's tragic about it?

Nothing tragic at all.

Nothing tragic at all.

So why use the word, "tragedy" in the thread title then? For the alliteration?

Indeed - a poor choice of title. I opened the thread expecting something about the loss of three trains in the Japanese earthquake.

It sounds good!
