This guy had just killed his mother so was quite joyful.
She just had a bog and was ready to get on the happy train. Oh yes, India is quite the trip.
Some people say it's so spiritual, i say It's a race to see who dies first.
Those Indians don't do a lot to improve their worldwide reputation
^
The Indians themselves are quite a friendly bunch and when riding trains in Second class 2 tier sleeper one meets some really interesting and well informed people.
But at the end of the day it's a hard slog if ya wanna really see the good stuff.
Being younger is a massive plus, i was 29 on my first trip and spent 4 months traveling the country from South to North finishing in Katmandu.
Trip of my life that one.
Every other trip after that has been quite the test.
The trains are quite good and set up same as Thai trains.
We traveled Second class 2 tier sleeper which was two bunks down and two up. Select the bottom bunks and all good. Sometimes we lucked out and traveled second class 3 tier which is not my go.
Upper bunks. OK if ya get stuck for a lower one.
The Indians have Issues with keeping shit clean. Not high on their agenda.
Ya really want to be fit and healthy before pulling on any serious travel in that shit house.
They post up the names of the punters in each carriage, ya go along find ya carriage and check you are on it.
Never ever go 3 Rd class. Free seating and one massive shit fight with punters climbing through windows to get on first.
Good fun watching that.
Nice selection of pics.
So when you wake up on the train next morning, are people hanging off the sides for rush hour?
In March, Mr Babar climbed on to the roof of the Sheopur Kalan Express as it hurtled through central India.
Passengers were on the roof because the train was overcrowded. They read newspapers, fell asleep and when
the train approached a tunnel, Mr Babar recalls everybody lowering their heads together.
"It's bizarre what people could get used to," he says.
Terry ... great images.
Your personal favourite route/s?
^
I have no favorite route in India, the place is so massive ya just pick a destination make sure ya get a second class 2 tier sleeper and go for it. I like to do a day and night then get into a decent hotel and get ready for the next trip.
I don't like first class because they are cabins and ya stuck in them with no interaction with the locals.
Traveling India on trains is interacting with the punters and getting balls deep into it.
^ Any Pretties?
Usually I don't find the Indian Look attractive ... but an open mind I'd like to keep
After living in Thailand and being surrounded by world beating pussy 24-7 ya do not go to India to see quality pussy.
They are extremely thin on the ground but in the big cities like Mumbai one will see a few world beaters but in general No.
Ya visit India to test ya self and see how long ya can last without spitting the dummy.
On every trip I Have had one incident where I have absolutely lost the plot.
It's a hard fookin grind mate.
