This photo was taken on the Filyos Train, not the Japanese Metro. The locals, who have been suffering from transportation difficulties for years due to the cancellation of train services under the pretext of “high-speed trains,” are now traveling in worse conditions than before with the start of the so-called “semi-high-speed train” services. Especially in the summer months, when citizens take advantage of the seaside season and prefer to travel by train, there is a stampede in the carriages.
TCDD, which operates with two wagons, provides limited service despite the insistent demands of the citizens, on the grounds that no more than two wagons can fit into the stations. Citizens who suffer in the wagons, which have turned into saunas due to the air conditioning not working, travel like a pile of fish.
