The Daily Train Riders, by Ashik Masud

In Bangladesh, due to the huge population you can often see an inadequate number of seats on the local trains. Some people are forced to borrow a ride now and then. They are so poor that they cannot buy ticket. They ride on the roof top, as well as between the carriages of train. They even seat in floor between two carriages, canteen, and beside door area, almost everywhere.
