Shoving Hour?

East Asia is a place where at certain times, there can be major crowding of people. One major crowding that occurs are the train stations in major cities, like Tokyo, during rush hour. The usual morning rush hours are from 8am to 9am. During these intense hours it must feel very difficult and painful. The people practically get shoved into the trains as one big blob. Imagine going through that each day, just trying to get to work. I don’t think it’d be very comforting at all. As you are being pushed into the train, you might hear people also being shoved into the doors next to you. You also might listen to the engine of the train preparing to go to the next stop, where more people are going to be pushed on. Yay… My biggest wonder is how they would get off of the train. I’d imagine that it would take a long time to wait for your turn to leave. The people would also have to be very patient because if not, it’d practically be impossible to get off. How would you feel if you had to take the train to work every day in Tokyo?

  2. I would feel like I would buy a car instead of taking the subway. If I had to wake up early to get on a stinking train at between 8 and 9 AM in the morning, I would deal with it until I get enough money to buy a car. Shoving people into trains sounds fun, but being shoved into trains doesn't sound fun. I can’t even imagine how people get off thee trains unless the people closest to the doors just tumble out and the rest just tumbles out with them. I suggest reading All Aboard because you guys both talk about people getting shoved inside trains. That is how I would feel and wonder about getting shoved insides trains.
