10 things I like in a Mumbai local

  1. One lady with three bags shouting at another one with five bags for carrying too much luggage during peak hours
  2. How much ever be the rush, a vendor will always find place for his sale in the compartment
  3. Someone will always be reading paper/book/ over another unknown person's shoulder
  4. Person without pass will most probably end up with a seat earlier than a genuine traveller
  5. There will always be someone who wants to go in the opposite side station thereby ruining your ironed shirt
  6. If you reach early, trains will be late & vice-a-versa
  7. More often than not you will get a seat only when you have reached the second last station of your destination
  8. Atleast once in summer you would end up travelling in compartment where Fans wont be working
  9. Just to add... Railway fans can still be easily be operated by combs
  10.  All said and done...I think this is one of the few places where all caste & creed get the same unfair treatment & no one can complain!
Now that you are enlightened...go enjoy your journey ....
