In the clip, the porter is seen helping a woman climb into the train followed by a young man, both entering through the emergency window, which lacks bars unlike other windows. He then pushes a large suitcase through the same window. Not stopping there, the porter lifts another woman into the train. The video also captures the coolie transferring two more bags.
