Tight Squeeze
Operating on train tracks in the famous Maeklong Railway Market. In Thai, they call it the "umbrella pulldown market". As a train approaches, the awnings and merchandise are moved back from the tracks just far enough to allow the train to pass.
I first visited this market in 2011 when it wasn't on the tourism radar - today its a major spectacle of people wanting to see the train squeeze through the market.
