General coach is an experience

Haven't seen much of general coach travellers sharing their experience, here's mine. I was travelling from Surat to Vadodara in the general coach of Swaraj express (12471). Everything from waiting for the train, the extreme crowd waiting for the train, getting into the train is pure madness. It's a complete horde of people with unconfirmed WL ticket guys, people with last moment plans and daily commuters who travel like this. I was standing on 1 leg for most of the trip and was amazed to know that people travel like this every single day.
