If you ever rode PNR then you see how much of a suffering people take on to get from A to B.
Most stand, carrying maybe kids, train station is not even connected to other train station of different train route, trains delayed often going only once every maybe 2h in afternoon, without a fixed train schedule. Rails or train not maintained going at slow pace sometimes breaking down midway.
I wish pnr would run at night since it would also allow nightlife to happen.
