Answer:
My college broke up for summer vacation on 10th June and I decided to go to Delhi. My uncle lives there. He had invited me to spend a few days with him. So I packed by luggage and drove to the railway station on a scooter. My father came to see me off. We reached the station in time. we went of the booking office window to get a ticket. There was a long queue at the window. My father managed to get a ticket for me.
People of all casters and creeds were seen there. Secular India was visible there. The train arrived at the platform. People were running up and down to get a seat. Coolies were busy helping the passengers. The hawkers were crying at the top of their voices. There was a great rush. My father pushed me and I was able to occupy a seat. He placed my luggage in compartment. Soon the train steamed off. I made my father good bye.
Soon the train gained speed. Very soon we were passing through the green fields. The farmers were seen working in their fields. They were sloughing the fields. Shepherds were grazing cattle. The children were making faces at us. We passed by many small and big towns. The train passed many bridges. The trees looked like running backwards. The earth seemed to be moving round. The clouds were in the sky. The scenery was very fine.
Our train was moving fast. It did not stop at small stations. It reached Ambala Cantt. At 5 p.m. here I had come tea. Again it moved on. It stopped at Panipat and Sonepat. It reached Delhi at 9 p.m. my uncle was already waiting for me. He received me warmly. Delhi railway station is a very big one. We hired an auto rickshaw and drove homeward.
Really the journey by rail was a very interesting one.
