There are sufficient "Pre-warners" among themselves to let them know of any obstacles that might come up !
There was very little crowd on the other side due to OHE obstuctions and the Platforms at stations.

Poor passengers! Reminds me of the erstwhile Barddhaman Gomoh Passengers.

Excellent Shot!
I really wonder how they manage the oscillations of the coach at 90-100 kmph .(considering that one foot space is allotted for every human hanging there!)

One amazing shot!

The wonder is, people are so used to it even though the train is running at 90-95 Kmph.
After all, all this for satisfying little tummy to live :(

How come the LPs didn't mind the two "heroes" clinging onto the loco?

Milind, the train gets overpacked only from Virar. All these people hanging get down at Saphale station and jump on the tracks. That's why they don't mind doing such stunts. The entire station was like a Fish Market. Snaps of these will follow very soon.

What a pity....i wonder how one can hang on for such a long time? many thanks for highlighting a serious issue....

Great snap Sagar. Worth a First Class stuff. Good to see a WCAM1 giving ferocious looks while bringing in the overcrowded passenger.

Two of the stuntmen are on the loco!
