on the cushions
Going back home on the cushions.
Man cycles onto the train and is shouting non-English words into his phone at such a volume, you'd probably be able to hear him in another solar system. The lady is playing Candy Crush Saga with the volume also at full blast; the bloke adjacent is snoring away happily.
The term on the cushions is what we call traveling on the train like a regular passenger, instead of hitching a ride in the driver's cab. Not sure when the term came about, but it's still pretty much in use in tube worker slang today.
