The 5 goods trains

The other day, I was returning to Kanpur from New Delhi when I saw these five goods trains standing parallel to each other just before Kanpur Central railway station. Their engines were aligned and they looked ready to race.

That is not the interesting part. This is: One of the trains was carrying steel hoops, two were full with heaps of coal, another was a petrol carrier and the carogo of last one, which could not be made out, I imagined to be cement.

I suddenly felt proud of my country - its actually racing towards development. Its there everywhere.

Oh India - I love you so.
