Makes a great deal of sense to me. How, how about Berber, which doesn't
really have a defined direction.... here I think that it has to do with
floor slope.

Nah.

It's far more complicated than that.

It has to do with the longitudinal centre of gravity of the train, and
the direction of travel, in relation to the coefficient of relaxation of
the rug fibres - but I won't bore you with the details :-)
