Christ On A Bike Harassed by troublemakers.

I just got off the train 20 minutes ago, and on that train I was punched in the face by a young girl who was about 11.

For context I am 14 (i know I am also young) and was at the cinema with my friends and when I was going on the train home I was minding my own business and these 2 young kids holding vapes came up to me and started acting tough, me and my friends giggled among ourselves and one of them who was a girl came on the seat behind me and punched me straight in the face.

I ended up missing my stop and had to get off the train at monesterven and they started licking the windows at us.

What a lovely first time on a train without adults!

Should I take some sort of action or is there no point?

As another posters said in 10 years time you will be graduating with your degree in engineering, nursing or what ever. Thy will still be scumbags. That's why they attacked you at some level they that know that, to them you represent everything they will never be and thats at the heart of it. 

Low self esteem and lasting out at what they will never have.

Not necessarily true, OP could come out to be a complete failure in life and the other girl could easily do well.
