Indeed, and with the population get older there's probably a greater need for toilets than ever.The needs of the travelling public have changed in 40 years. Yes, commuters would sacrifice a toilet for a short trip, but what about the other passengers who would like to use the service at other times ? Not all passengers are blessed with massive bladders and well-behaved bowels.
Not to mention that with walk-through carriages there's going to be less places discrete urination.
It seems strange that everyone on the train has to do without a toilet just so a handful of extra people can be squeezed on on those few trips where the space that would have been taken up by a toilet or two is needed for passengers.
