Explanation:
My most memorable journey till date is my visit to the blue hills in the year 2001. It was my journey from Chennai to Udhagamandalam with my family. We left Chennai in the late evening on 1st June 2001 on Nilgiri Express.
It was a long hot 9 hrs. journey. Our compartment was close to the carriage door.
The compartment curtains were wafting as people walked by & opened the door. It made us irritated so we decided to pin up the curtains together with safety pins to maintain privacy. As it were the hot days of summer so none of us was able to sleep properly that night. It was like bumping into the desert in the wrong direction.
In the morning we reached Mettupalayam. As we stepped out of the train we saw a lovely chaos of the rural India. We heard the guy shouting “Coffee coffee coffee..” We had coffee and headed towards our journey up to Ooty (over the Nilgiri Blue Mountain railway) by raw steam power. The place was full of tea plantations and cool breezes. The journey was fantastic.
I was very curious to see that’s there in store for me on the 2nd day because it was supposed to be a lot more than the first day. We started our journey. On the way I saw many rivers surrounded with big hairy tress. The tracks passed over high bridges. Thos bridges were very scary because they did not have the sides.
Nobody dared to peep outside the window. After sometime we stopped at a station written “calamity in 1993” which killed hundreds of people. It was a landslide on the tracks. Then the train headed towards Ooty. We crossed many beautiful gardens & cool breezes.
Answer:
A Memorable Journey
A journey by train is the best if you have enough time and have to travel long distance. This is the only means of transport that allows you to sleep comfortably during the journey. I prefer travelling at night. I can comfortably sleep in the train during my journey and wake up fresh and head to work during my official trips. One of my most memorable journeys by train was when I travelled from Delhi to Lucknow last year. I went to visit my relatives in Lucknow. During this train journey, I met a group of college students. The group was lively, cheerful and extremely friendly.
