  • What a wonderful sociological insight into one of the greatest infrastructures in Asia - the Indian train, particularly the Mumbai train. Mass of people, mass of consciousness and mass that is quite helpful. Large population, yet has so few killings and murders for its size and crowd, compared to some developed countries. Very telling. Thank you for the lovely video. I hope you will post more with commentaries (of many parts of India).

  • thx a lot. unfortunately i only have this video of my travels to india. you have to wait till next time ;)

  • nice comments only please .. i deleted the offensive ones!

  • what is one white woman doing in the train with all those men?

  • she is my girlfriend and we were travelling with a lot of luggage from Thane to CST, to spend our last day in India in Downtown Mumbai.

  • ups, sorry i just deleted the other comment. well .. we exited the train halfway, because we could not stand the thightness in there, so we continued our journey by taxi. so much easier!

  • @onegoodman66: bad driving on roads account for most of those deaths. the railways have an incredibly low fatality rate, even compared to any form of transport anywhere. consider this: indian railways carry ~17 million people per day, that's close to 6 BILLION people a year. no other system in the world could come close. the konkan railway is a marvel in civil engn. bombay's locals smash london's tube in # of people, and easily match it in reliability. and yet, they're so cheap!!

  • that is cool.. people on buses in the United States are stone statues..

  • Not @ the right place to shoot the video. You got to stand near the entry/exit doors of upcoming stations. You just hav to stand there. You will be pushed out or pushed 'in in no time. and have to stand cramp for almost the entire duration. At peak hours these are so crowded people hand loose from Windows outside....
