timeless romance!



the clickity-clack rhythm of metal
the chugging of the smoking diesel engine
the gentle breeze hitting your face
the little raindrops on the window sill
little children waving from hamlets
a sadhu and a dog on a deserted platform
the oh-so-mouth-watering, never mind the hygiene (or lack of it), gastronomic temptresses
the hide-n-seek with the cockroaches traveling ticket-less
garam chai in the middle of the night
sunrise and sunset in the middle of nowhere
just a few things that weave the aura, the romance of train journeys


Train journeys mesmerized me as a child.
What do they mean to you?
What is your favorite mode of transport for long journeys?
This ad made my heart flutter, rekindled the lost love for trains in me, yet again & my dil goes ummmmmm...uuummmmmmmmmmmm every time I see the video :) :)
