2:00 a.m. “A station has come. Is it Agra? Go and see. Everyone! Get ready”. “Oh, its not Agra”. Imagine this conversation going on endlessly for over 4 hours! This was the nightmare I was in on the train back to Delhi. A gang of Tamilians were all geared up to hop off at Agra but the train being late they had to wait till 7:00 am to actually hop off. In the meantime, they repeatedly disturbed me (and no doubt others) by having this circular conversation, interspersed with side dialogues on the inadvisability of having tea as they might miss Agra!
I’ve never been to Agra and have always wanted to visit…..though right now I don’t think I will cos I’m sick of the place! Why cannot people get off trains without waking the entire world up? This was as bad as the two old men who discussed the relative merits of various idli places in Bangalore and Madras, on the night train between the two cities, till way into the night or rather early morning!
