Valid point made by DESRAJ GINOTRA but instead of PA system there can be electronic display in each bogie like in Metros etc. The existence of coach attendant "was' only for AC & I class and I wonder whether they are still there as during my recent Journey in Rajdhani & Duranto I could not locate one as I needed some assistance. Agree with Raja Mukherjee, the commuters also contribute a lot to make the bogies messy as many think it is not their responsibility. But I was shocked to see the struggle of the food serving team as there is no place for them in each bogie and they have to occupy the entire area near the washroom as there is no alternative. Some thoughts and action is required in this regard more  
presently some train of south india (golconda express)chair car have electronic display in chair car for nex station. Even distance in k.m is also displayed so that u may calculate tentative time for next station. further, all station can be displayed in all compartment of all train like metro train of delhi and kolkata that is very easy more  
Sir, PA system will created disturbence , Providing the display idication for the station at each coach will be helpfull to each other, sathasivan more  
Sometime back chair cars used to have a facility to indicte (by ticker tapes and not by announcements) approaching stations. Like many experiments in the Railways, that died of "natural "causes more  
PA system will definitely disturb sleeping passengers. But, even 20 years ago, it was a norm that you could tell the coach attendant and he would wake you up before arrival of your station. This should be included in the Charter of Duties of the Coach Attendant and a notice to that be displayed in all compartments for bringing this to the notice of the passengers. more
