OVER-CROWDED TRAIN!!

I work on week-ends….. I feel good about it! No supervisor on your head to see how you work and why you work? But traveling on week-ends on Central railways is so bad!

Last Sunday after work, I reached one of the central stations at 6 pm. Saw that there are many ladies standing to catch the same train which was already 15 mins late! And with those ladies, were small kids. I was wondering how they will travel with these small angels (who become pain to your ears, once they are inside the train).

The Dadar local arrived on the platform, every lady wanted to get in that train. A compartment, in which no more than 150 human beings should travel, travels a good sum of 500+ ladies... :D
I left that train... Oh come on! Do you actually expect me to travel in a train so crowded???? NOWAYS!

I left 2 more Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus (Previously known as VT) bound trains.... at last somewhere around 6:30-40 pm I gathered some courage and boarded a Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus bound train. It was so crowded!!!!

Ladies were pushing from one end to another just to get inside.....to check if any seat is available... WOW! How do they manage to do that with a small kid in tow?

I actually thought that something must be done about it...but then again I had so many questions in my head now? Anyways, the best part was this.... I was inside the train enough to feel the heat.... this chick standing next to me... awww she was stinking! Why can't such people use deodorants or a spray, to keep themselves fresh? I mean come on…. People won’t invent something like that for no reason…. I stopped breathing! Literally!!!

22-mins journey!!!!!! Yes, I was in that compartment for good 22-mins, controlling my breath, and trying not to fight with other ladies, like what they were doing at that very moment.

I got down at my destination feeling very blessed, that I was able to make it in one piece…:D
I still travel in train just that the timings have changed….now I travel a little late in the evenings when very few ladies prefer to travel with the kids and because of which the train is also less crowded.
