A little noticed article on msnbc.com which I saw over the weekend:

More than 20,000 people have been killed on Mumbai’s notoriously overcrowded train system over the past five years — many of them crushed, run over or electrocuted — according to official data.

Mumbai’s trains are the lifeline of India’s financial capital, carrying some 7 million commuters every day, but an average of 10 people don’t survive the trip each day.

Wow. Just wow. I thought my commute was annoying… but deadly?
