Since I can’t respond to the dead comment that replied to me, I’ll respond to my own comment.
On the 5:59 train from Zürich to Basel, there is no chance of this happening. It’s an extremely pleasant ride on the DB ICE, up until Basel.
On the afternoon or evening trains(there’s one every 30 minutes) I have also never felt threatened. Although I typically get a 1st class ticket on my way back home because it gets kind of crowded with all the families and retired folks in 2nd. class, and I prefer to nap in peace.
If my company weren’t paying for my tickets, I’d probably go in the 2nd class as well.
Perhaps your society has some issues if you feel threatened in public spaces.
