These images of India’s packed railroads will make you thankful for your daily commute.

India has the world’s second-biggest rail network. This, along with the fact that it transports 23 million passengers each day, helps to explain why its trains are so full that passengers are frequently seen hanging over the side.

Taking the train is a long-standing practice in India; the oldest train in the world, built in 1855, also travels on the India rail network between New Delhi and Rajasthan.

Take a peek at these crazily crowded trains in India if you think your commute is terrible or airport queues are giving you the travel blues.

You could feel a bit less claustrophobic as a result.

India’s current population is 1.2 billion.
