Local Trains Comments

Train is the backbone of transportation of our country despite problems we used to face daily while travelling....... Geetha.......incidents and experiences brought out in a beautiful piece of write.......

a beautiful portrait of a nation in motion with diverse incidents and characters.

a good photography of what you are seeing.

Travelling in a train is quite an experience.... For daily commuters, it is a menace, but if there is enough space for us to sit and relax, train journey is less tedious and more enjoyable. One thing, we have to be extra alert to be safe from pick pockets and molesting brutes! Geetha, you have brought in the mixed experiences of a train journey! Enjoyed! !

worlds of train pain and agony and joyous moment which imprinted in the mind thank for share

But one lady among us Thrown out of the train You described all realities of local train travel. My classmate in Bombay (now Mumbai) fell from local train in 1980s and is no more. I remembered him when I read your poem. Thank you.

Very true ma'm...you have sketched the common man issues regarding train journey in an interesting and lucid manner through this touchy poem. Hats off to you and thanks for sharing: -)

WE have the same problem here in the UK. Though in the UK you have to be rich to travel by train.

it is panic to read it. i just can't imagine this happens in real life. how can anyone jump inside and outside before a train stops? it sounds like an adventure

Really panic to read this poem Train while in motion Can get seat to sit or probably place to stand. While getting down
