A railway carriage with a glass or plastic floor, permitting the occupants to see the track under the carriage, the wheels or bogies, and all the cabling and pipework.

That's it.

       This is the same view down many toilets in Europe's trains, which is more or less the same reason you wouldn't want a glass-bottom carriage.

       Everything could have glass bottoms. Ships, lifts, cars, shoes, trousers, bridges...
