I remember an old train's toilet just being an outright hole to the area between both tracks.
No processing whatsoever, you could look down and see your train zooming through the granite.

A Finnish saying "Works like a train toilet" meaning something that works with utter reliability.
This is because old Finnish trains simply had a flap in the toilet to dump the shit out onto the tracks. However, if it broke, it would invariably break in the open position, meaning it still worked.
And to add one of those things you can't unsee once you learn about it(sort of the nautical equivalent of font kerning) the flag on a sailing ship should always be fluttering forward for the same reason, the problem is our intuition is built around motor vessels where the vehicle is faster than the wind and does flutter backwards. so it looks wrong and quite a few artists get this incorrect in modern paintings and video games.
