We’ve all seen pics of ridiculously overcrowded passenger cars and chaotic railway stations. They leave me with the impression that safety isn’t a huge concern among Indian railway operators, regulators, or even passengers.

Granted, those photos are probably extremes that don’t represent the norm, but the impression remains (unfair though it may be).

While you aren't completely wrong but the photos of overcrowded railways that pop up regularly on reddit's front page definitely don't represent the whole system and are mostly from the past. Those trains run mostly in cities and are slow.
