Singapore Woman’s Video Exposes Alarming Reality Of Indian Railway Coaches: ‘Almost Felt Like Vomiting’
Singapore Woman’s Video Exposes Alarming Reality Of Indian Railway Coaches: ‘Almost Felt Like Vomiting’
A video featuring a tourist from Singapore highlighting the “real condition" of a general coach in Indian Railways has once again sparked discussions on social media about the serious problems and challenges faced by passengers, both locals and foreigners.
In the 15-second clip shared on X, the woman, reportedly from Singapore, is seen boarding the train. Upon entering, she looks surprised by the condition inside and covers her nose. As she tries to find her seat, the foreigner appears visibly uncomfortable.
From the video, it appears that she was not alone and was joined by others on the train journey. Towards the end, one of them could be seen trying to open the window near the seat.

The caption on the video read, “Reels may look glamorous, but the real condition of Indian Railways can be shocking. Woman tourist almost felt like vomiting."
‘Not Limited To General'
In the comments section of the post, several X users stated that they can relate to the situation as they have witnessed similar conditions during their train journeys.
“No lies. The trains are nasty… Not limited to general and non-AC coaches only. Even AC coaches are bad," one person wrote.

Another user claimed that they “actually did vomit" after travelling in a train.

However, someone wrote, “Except for the dirt on the windows, everything looks clean. The platform, the corridor."

How Did The Internet React
Meanwhile, several users questioned the foreigners' choice of booking tickets in the General coach, rather than opting for AC coaches.
“What more does she expect from a mode of transport where the travel fare is barely 50 paise per km? You can't expect a business-class experience at such a nominal cost. If you want a premium experience, travel by Vande Bharat. This is not an exposé. Stop defaming your own country," one person highlighted.

Another person suggested that such train coaches are “meant for poor people who travel in bulk to cities for work."
“She has some hidden sick agenda, and one should not get trapped. Reality has different meanings," the X user wrote.

One of them stated that people should not expect “world-class service for a penny".
General train coaches are for poor people, if u want something better, book a first class of at least second class! You get what u pair for ! Expecting a world-class service for a penny is not acceptable

Foreign tourists have often shared their experiences after travelling by Indian trains on the Internet. In recent times, several of these posts have gone viral. While they mostly highlight positive aspects and memorable experiences, sometimes they also talk about serious issues faced by the passengers.
In November last year, a UK vlogger talked about two incidents that bothered him during his journey.

At first, he claimed that a fellow passenger kept putting his foot on his seat, despite him requesting the person avoid doing so. Later on, he showed a vendor selling a cucumber-based snack from a basket and said, “Some dude just spat on my arm. He went past." Back then, several social media users were left shocked by the vlogger's claims, while some blamed him for not choosing an upper-class compartment.
