I've been in both — kind of, sort of. At least if it's too cold, you can bundle up (despite how stupid that is). But when one of your coworkers doesn't want it on, and you're then cooking to death... yeah, that's not fun. Same with idiots in public transit who don't let you crack the window open to let air in, because "it's cold/blowing at my head!!". Bitch, go sit somewhere else then or take a taxi.
Huh, I've never been in public transportation where opening a window was an option. All the trains and public buses I've been on (in the U.S.) have windows that are permanently shut.
It depends. On all our old and new tram models the upper part of the window can be cracked open. Not fully, just enough for the breeze and fresh air to get in. Buses have fixed windows that can't be opened. Trains — at least in my home country — vary: old ones you can usually slide the entire window open in the hallway(?), but the cabins, IIRC, have the same mechanism like the trams; new ones have fixed windows, IIRC, but they are also air-conditioned, so it's not a problem.
Here's an example of an older tram. In some the window can be cracked open just a little bit, though.
Interesting. I’ve never ridden in a tram, they don’t exist in the parts of the country I’ve lived in.
