I'm not sure how that's been affected by the restoration of the Ecuadorean railway since then. | |

| Mar 3, 2016 at 17:10 | comment | added | PSC775 | More then a dozen people died in Uttar Pradesh 3-4 years ago and a law was put in place to stop people from traveling on rooftops so it is illegal now but I am not putting this as an answer because I am sure there must be some routes where this law is not enforced strictly. I saw people sitting on the roof of an electric train near "Palwal" near Delhi but it is a long way from Goa. | |

| Mar 2, 2016 at 11:06 | comment | added | Gayot Fow | Interestingly, I watched episode 1 of "Bombay Railway" (bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007xb0j) last week with the same question in mind. The narrator explained how it was totally illegal on the Bombay system, which confirms what you read. Plus in the area surrounding "Bombay", there were no shots containing surfers. Highly recommended documentary by the way. I have episode 2 scheduled to watch. | |
