As far as I understand, М has private bathroom but СВ doesn't. It's confusing but I'm sure I saw them sold at different prices.

Are we discussing 1982 or 2017? :-)
There were no bathtubs on the trains in 1980-s in Soviet Union...
It has nothing to do with air transportation which has been developed in Soviet era, where everebody was equal.
edit: minor mistakes.
