It's funny that the UK is one of the most expensive places in the world to catch a train, and when we do we're bombarded with advertising the entire time.

Actually, perhaps "funny" isn't the right word...

I posted about this in another thread. In order to delete all advertising from TfL services (~5% of revenue) my bus fare would go from 1.50 to 1.58.

Of course, immediately after that, someone brought up the fact that they can't afford 8 pence. I figure they must have spent it all on hair loss products from the advertising.
