Let one or two thunders from the line above fall on one guy in the bandwagon... let him get fried... others will then understand how nice is 25KV AC traction...

This is a regular feature on GZB-ALJN line on EMUs. Luckily no casualties heard of. The RPF and station staff will never run into this crowd, as this is western UP.

Samar, touchwood nothing has happened, but 1 day myself, Ranjeet, Tushar and Deep have seen a ticketless traveller electrocuted while travelling rooftop on the 3xx Emu.

By seeing this image, rooftop travellers will get enough courage to travel on rooftop in AC territories within Mumbai.

This should qualify for a Feviquick Advertisement !
Nice .
Fella's are quite brave enough to sit close to the arm of the pantograph, Let alone sparks that can cause electrocution.

There is an overbridge in the direction train is moving and surely distance between these maniacs and conductor will reduce. I really don't believe there have been no cases of electrocution.

Please have a look at the sparks generated by the Memu in AC power. How dangerous it can be travelling rooftop in ac power. It is as follows;
