seven Probably so he is alone in his train compartment, which usually consists of 6 seats. – d4zed May 2 at 10:31

I’ve not seen the show, but one might wonder why he’d choose a moving train – a notoriously difficult, if not impossible, place to write, draw or do anything else that requires a steady hand on paper – as the location in which to forge a signature, rather than, say, doing it in the villa he’d just cleared out, which was presumably stationary.

one @JanusBahsJacquet - In the novel he has all sorts of difficulty with the signature. He can't ever seem to get it quite right. Practicing it under a range of conditions seems like a pretty good idea, and train cars aren't all that wobbly – Valorum May 4 at 9:16 -
Oh, I see – you meant that he spends the journey practicing the forged signature . That makes more sense; I thought you meant that he had a specific document where he needed to forge the signature and chose to do that on the train. Train cars are definitely less wobbly than just 20 years ago, but I personally still find it a real challenge to write legibly on a moving train, much less emulate someone’s signature. May 4 at 9:21
