Answer:
The speaker is the blind man sitting in the dark corner of the train compartment.
The best time is the month of October, when "the hills of Mussorie are covered with wild dahlias, the sun is delicious, and at night you can sit in front of a log fire and drink a little brandy. Most of the tourists have gone and the roads are quiet and almost deserted. Yes, October is the best time.".
The new female passenger was asking him abut his travel destination and their conversation took them to the place of Mussoorie.
The place will be covered with wild dahlias with the beautiful sun and not much tourists, leaving the roads quiet and almost deserted.
After calling on his memories, the speaker went on to question in his mind ifhis words had touched her or she would think him to be a romantic fool. He thinks so because he wasn't so sure how she would react, and that since he's blind himself, he could not see her face or read her expression.
