I'm Indian, and I'm saying this because I know how much of a burden our railways is on the taxpayer. It's a huge sink into which $20B worth of taxes disappear every year, with only dirty, poorly run trains to show for. It's so bad that I'll avoid traveling in trains if there is absolutely any other way. I'll drive 12 hours straight but not get into the hassle of a train.
- samarthr1 4y agoAre we travelling in two different countries? I travel mostly in the south, mostly in sleeper class. I find that it is reasonably good (and cheap enough for my shoestring budget). Some 10 years ago, yes they were terrible, but now, it is quite good, and affordable. The target audience for the railways is less upper middle class, and more middle and lower classes.
