In a viral video currently making the rounds on social media, an Indian YouTuber has drawn attention to the striking similarities between the general class compartments of trains in China and India. The content creator, who recently travelled on a Chinese train, was surprised to find conditions resembling those often seen in India's general class.
"The YouTuber said that despite being in China, the general class had scenes familia
r to Indian train travellers. Passengers were sitting on the floor near the washrooms and travelling with their own buckets and chairs -- something commonly seen in India."

In the video, the YouTuber expressed astonishment at how similar the experience was. However, a few key differences stood out. "The Chinese general class boasted air conditioning (AC) and automatic doors, which are rarely found in India's general compartments."
The video, now widely shared across social media platforms, has sparked discussions among viewers. Many were surprised to see the condition of general class compartments in Chinese trains, challenging some preconceived notions about China's transportation infrastructure.
Users Reactions to the Viral Video:
“Finally, Gems babu is showing some true facts about China. Finally bashing India has stopped and showing real truth about #China has started.
I travelled to many countries, i can proudly say, #india is better even with dirt and gutka problems. Travel, you will know and learn,” said one of the users.
Another one countered and said, “These are rural and vintage, not the norm. You should mention that China has more HSR (high speed rail) than the rest of the world combined. The tickets are affordable and over 13 billion cumulative trips a year.”
A third user wrote, “before high speed rail china's fastest was 60kmph train. They too face same prob as ours. Not easy to upgrade speeds on existing lines so they opted for seperate high-speed network. Which is what we are trying to do now. But we should increase existing lines op speed as well.”
