The general coaches of Indian railways are usually jam-packed. However, during holidays, travelling in these coaches is something you don’t want to experience! And this video shared by Abhijeet Dipke on Twitter explains why. It starts with a man climbing on berths in order to cross the crowded aisle of the train coach.
In the tweet, he explains that he got the video from his cousin who was travelling by train and the person in the video is his friend. Further, he also thanked the Railway Ministry for transforming train journeys into an adventure sport!
He revealed to The Indian Express that his cousin, who was making a trip from Aurangabad to Mumbai on May 6, took the video while on the Devagiri Express. The video was recorded around 2 am and featured his cousin’s friend.

Looks like @RailMinIndia‘s idea of an adventure sport is watching people struggle to use the toilet on a moving train. Can’t wait for the Olympic event “Squat and Sprint”.
