Some large trains have a dining car or a viewing car, or even a bar. I think true luxury would be a library car. It would not need to stock a full size catalogue, since the clientele self-selects for the idle and mildly frivolous. Your ticket becomes your library card, and in that way the value of kept books can be easily recovered. It would be a draw to tourists and commuters alike.
