Buffer-class passengers
Wahid Adnan
(Chittagong, Bangladesh)
Photographed January 2008, Chittagong, Bangladesh
"I took this photo while traveling on this train's rooftop,” says Adnan. "In a country like Bangladesh, there are many people who live beside the railway and the railway becomes part and parcel of their lives." Those who could not afford to buy a ticket clambered on top with Andan or teetered between coaches.

I just got back from a mission trip in India, near the boarder of Bangladesh, taking a train just like this and it is amazing how shockingly realistic this is. Very nice shot!
