Train is a common transport consisting of rail track to transport cargo or passengers. In today 20th Century the train had become part of daily transport for everyone. It connects you to wherever places you would want to travel but it’s limited to a certain point. I myself have benefited a lot on this transport so it’s time to share what are some of the busiest metro station around the globe:
