While it’s not unusual to see a homeless person sleeping at a train station, somebody took it to the next level, quite literally, setting up a cleverly hidden encampment at an Amtrak station in Antioch, California.

On first sight, the small train station in the San Francisco suburb doesn’t lend itself to a secret shelter. It was by a happenstance, too, that it was discovered.
