From my experience it was good natured, spoiled only by the media
playing up the yob angle. There were thousands of people involved and
only a tiny number of yobbish incidents.

Well, that may be your experience, but the reports I've seen amount to
rather more than a "tiny number" of yobbish incidents. I don't see how you
can blame the media for passengers assaulting drivers, throwing bottles,
damaging trains and stations.
