Adrenaline junkies with a penchant for hanging from the footboards of local trains better watch their moves.
Special Railway Police Force (RPF) squads have been on the prowl on the Central Railway (CR) network, to nab daredevil youngsters who endanger their lives and cause a nuisance in the city's local trains.
If statistics are to be believed, RPF squads have nabbed 3,220 offenders in the month of September. These 'stuntmen' were hanging from trains, jeering, and showing off their acrobatic skills.
