i agree with accidental messiah.. its a big metaphor.. the conductor being the marriage conselor "stood up and took role call" made sure both husband and wife were there.. "he sent love and happiness into the next car" he was trying to help them renew their love for the future.. "the bags are in and we plan no stops" basically they were gonna see it through til the end.. "just fearing sleeping in the box" usually through counsenling the two are seperated, and the box possibly being a own room hotel room
