Yes, but Bombay's on another level. I mainly experienced Calcutta's suburban rail on the HWH-KGP section. It was much better on this route compared to say on the HWH-BWN route. The worst I saw was an EMU plying to Digha, it was probably the densest train I have seen with nary an space to get into. I couldn't move an inch for the whole 2.5 hrs from Panskura to Digha.
please wait...Translate to HindiHaan, par Bombay ka alag hi scene hai. Mainly, Calcutta ke suburban rail me HWH-KGP section pe safar kiya hai. Yeh route HWH-BWN route ke comparison me kaafi acha tha. Sabse bura scene tha jab maine ek EMU dekhi jo Digha ke liye chal rahi thi, shayad sabse zyada bhari train thi jo maine dekhi hai, kisi bhi space mein entry nahi thi. Panskura se Digha tak poori 2.5 ghante main ek bhi inch nahi hil paya.
