Looking at the platform from the bridge, I could see many peddlers doing business with their goods lined up in a narrow space. The Da Nyin Gone train station in Yangon was like an open-air market. This scene made me think that if the platform continues to evolve, it will become a market like a drive-through. People would arrive by train and be able to shop without getting off the train. However, you never know if you will stop in front of a store that sells your desired product. It's a bit of a gamble drive-through.
While I was thinking about this, the guys on the tracks below seemed to notice that I was watching from above. There is nothing around me that looks like merchandise. Unlike many other peddlers, these men did not seem to be here to work. They may have come here to shop, but they were tired and just lingered on the tracks. Even when I pointed my camera at them, they did not react in any particular way.
