When it comes to snakes, Australia can be a pretty scary place. The slimy, creepy creature can literally invade any space and kick the living daylights out of someone. And recently, one such species was spotted riding a train! Yes, not in any grassland or garden but the python hitchhiked on a South Coast Line train.

“Arrangements were made for a snake handler to meet the train on arrival at Central Station,” a NSW TrainLink spokesperson told the Sydney Morning Herald. Finally, the train reached the Sydney station little after 9 pm and the snake was rescued.
Thankfully, the snake on the train was identified as a non-venomous kind and a popular pet breed. The python was not long but it managed to scare the other passengers in the coach.
Last year, another such incident happened when a man was arrested for travelling with a jungle-python and showing it off to fellow passengers. The NSW Police rescued the reptile called “bread” from its owner and later relocated it after a thorough exam.
