Bombing an end carriage makes evacuation harder, as there's only one way out for the whole train if it's in a tunnel. If you have the resources + sufficiently evil intent, you do one at each end of the train = maximum problems for two bombs.
When I use the train for work, I go in the front (if I've not got a travelcard or it's not a Wimbledon train) or rear (if I have and it is) carriage, because the few seconds saved at the other end outweigh(ed) the slight extra risk re crashes or rational bombers.
