    possibly none at all. I know the Mumbai commuters don't have doors, there was a great 2 parter on BBC about it a while ago.

    Been over there a few years ago and got carte blanche from staff to wander around Bangkok Noi loco shed to take pics. Nearly slipped on my arse on an oily covered sheet of steel!

    They don't have a compo culture and the legal system doesn't encourage it. If you get injured doing anything, basically it's your own fault for being a dumb-ass.

    Tourists regularly cross the 'real' Bridge On The River Kwai out in Kanchanaburi on foot. This is an operational railway bridge. All the train does is slow down and hoot the horn to clear the way!

    well I have to say if you get injured by a couple of hundred tonnes of train, hooting vigourously and moving slowly it SHOULD be regarded as your own fault. How could it be the trains fault?
