I once found a 1976 Readers Digest in the pocket in front of me on the XPT 
from Sydney to Melbourne. Rivetting reading it was! At least I almost slept

Subsequent trips I've always ended up buying magazines, newspapers and what 
not. Walkmans with recorded music help too - radio reception is not that
