My dear mother and father,
How are you? Hope this letter finds you in the best of health and happiness. I reached here yesterday instead of day before yesterday. But I am fine here. The train was delayed for a day because there was a railway accident near a small out station. The accident occurred when a goods train went off its track and collided with another train.
The railway authorities stopped all the trains going by that route. So our train had to stop much before the station. It was night time and we did not have any platform to get down. Some men got down on the tracks and went and got food and other things from some distance. Otherwise everyone else had to depend on the food supplied by the train caterers only.
After some time the lights and fans in the train stopped working. We had a lot of difficulty in moving in the dark. We were asked to shut the doors of our coaches tightly at night so that no miscreants would get a chance to get inside in the dark. I was a bit scared but as uncle was there with me I was safe. He was awake the whole night and kept a watch on me.
We all felt relieved when the train started in the morning on the next day. After that the journey was fast and we reached here yesterday. We were very tired.
With love and regards,Your loving son,
Akhilesh
