That's terribly unkind of you. I'll have you know that I've been in "dir
swamp holes" that were CONSIDERABLY cleaner than the gents at any train

Gee, how bad were they???

The award for the worst toilets I have ever seen goes to the entrance
lodge (east) for the Serengetti in Tanzania. You could smell them 50ft
away. I'll spare you the details......

I nominate those at Kano airport in 1971. Foetid and lots of odd bugs

Cue for: "It's no good standing on the seat, the bugs in here can jump six

It was crabs, rather than bugs, when I first heard it. To try to get
back on topic, I don't think they were of the 2-6-0 variety.
