At Dhaka's Airport Railway Station, one train is pulling out while another rolls in. π The departing train carries a crowd on its roof. π¨ The arriving train has an empty roof, but a few people still sit on top of its locomotive. β οΈ
The level crossing barriers are down, yet people stream across the tracks right in front of the approaching train. π§ Others stand on the rails, and some are even shopping beside them as if it were an ordinary market. ποΈ Everywhere you look, there is risk. π
A train cannot swerve, and it cannot stop in an instant. π One careless step can change a family's life forever. π
π‘οΈ Safety Tips π§ Never cross when the barrier is down. It means a train is coming, so wait until it is fully open. π« Never stand, walk or shop on the rail lines. Keep a safe distance from the tracks at all times. π Never ride on a roof or locomotive. Travel inside the coach with a valid ticket.
