I found this piece of writing in my friend's exercise book:
"How many of you are daily passengers on local trains and travel by train, to and from your home to your place of work? All I can say is take a bow! Local trains in office time are a sight to reckon. A perfect battleground resembling World War 3. The only difference is in the absence of deadly weapons. Here the people are deadlier than any weapon with their office bags and bare fists to do all the fighting. I consider the people who travel by local trains in peak office hours to be special and if they happen to board or disembark from Bidhannagar, then they are angelic!!!"
I can't figure out the meaning of "angelic","reckon","bow". Please help.
