INCREDIBLE BHARATHA
Train journey is one which most of us have always
enjoyed. As the train traverses though the beautiful fields or on the
bridges crossing mighty rivers or though some beautiful tunnels, just
watching out of the window getting into our pensive mood with that back
ground music of "tak tak.. tak tak" sound itself is a heartwarming
experience.
