I don`t know what it is, but it`s a completely different and much more unpleasant nose burning odor.
There are always people who stink, and being in a cramped space just amplifies it. Once foul odored person can make the whole train smell horrible.
But seriously, those tour buses gave me nightmares. I did interpretation for a bunch of them around the expo... They`d be saying "Japanese people smell like sushi! Harharhar!" while they often smelled like they`d been slathering themselves in vomit or something, then sprayed a squirt of perfume to cover it.
I have a number of horror stories from that experience, and, well, urgh. Being in another country doesn`t relieve you of the responsibility of keeping your body clean.

lol, I try to stay clear of tourists to be honest...sounds like it might be the best after reading that
I'm not sure if it's the humidity, but people smell waaaaaay worse than back in UK during the summer months
