Mohan Checks It Out - It Works! It is about 10.00 a.m. on another typical July morning, all grey skies and rain-splashed windows. What's interesting is that I'm reporting all this from the Guwahati Rajdhani Express, somewhere near Moghulsarai and on the way to Delhi. Technology, Indian Railways : you've come a long way! Someone's playing the Beatles' 'In My Life' on FM Radio. Train journeys have always been fun, but this is too good!

Impressed that you can blog and chat from the train. Should we seriously consider you-know-who as the next PM?
Wah kya baat hai

Really interesting – it indeed has been an innovative technology of our times but more original is your amusing idea!

Feeling nostalgic for the good old hot, dusty Grand Trunk Express train!

Buckets of Train?
Trains are getting more luxurious /fun- and more crowded with airfares going up.
Nice company or just yourself is great.
