If you miss the train I'm on/Then you'll know that I have gone/You can hear the whistle blow a 100 miles...

From the airport, which I showed you last time, today I take you to the Old Delhi railway station. Delhi has several important stations and among these, Delhi Railway Station, Old Delhi Railway Station, Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station are the most prominent ones.

I had recently gone to Old Delhi Railway Station to board a train to Jodhpur. The entrance, painted in yellow and red, is grand.
The platform is quite neat and tidy. And the train was on time. So I was a happy traveller :-)

Early Morning At Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station

More relatives are visiting Delhi and yours truly was at the Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station to receive them. It was amazing to be at the station in the wee hours as it was quite empty, a big change from its usually bustling character. This is one of the few last cool mornings that Delhi will be lucky to experience and soon the scorching sun will come to haunt us.

Hope the weather in your city is pleasant. :-)

Goods Train

The thing about the railway stations across India is that they have a life of their own. Its like visiting a mini-city within the City. And everything revolves around just the Trains.
