Super-dense crush load? I hear it's very intense in Japanese suburban networks. The E231 and E235 are nice trains to have, though.
-
3,000 is their designed capacity--a super-dense crush load would be double that or more
-
I wonder how a train that crowded would feel like- we've seen videos of officials who have to push passengers into trains.
-
pushers were common up until the 1990s, but are rare these days I've been on more crowded trains in Boston
-
the worst case scenario for that level of crowd is either smelly neighbor or standing off balance
