A Scene at the Railway Station
A Scene at the Railway Station
Railway Station is that place from where trains go and come. India has the largest network of railway stations spread through the length and breadth of the country.
Most of the big towns and cities are linked with each other and quite a few villages that fall in the way of the rail tracks are connected for movement by rail.
A train is the most convenient and affordable mode of travel for the majority of people of the country that is India. When we have to go hundreds of kilometers away from home on work or to meet our near and dear ones, we travel by train which gives us a fairly comfortable movement to and fro.
This train moving for hundreds of kilometers stops at several places small and big, and it is at stations there that we get down. From the station we go out to the town and proceed to our destination in the town. The passengers who have to go out of the town also go to the station from where they board their train.
The scene and aura of the railway station starts from the very front of the station where we come to board the train. There is a crowd in front of the station, there are taxi stands, scooter stands, and even rickshaw stands for passengers to take to move out of the station.
In front of the station there is thus, a crowd all the time, and loud shouts of drivers of all kinds calling passengers to their conveyance. This is obviously because the station is the boarding and halting place for both incoming and outgoing passengers. The noise and rush of the station start showing itself from outside the station.
As we move into the station premises, the scene becomes more interesting to watch. We can see trains coming in and going out from different platforms: People can be seen rushing into the station and also rushing out of it. Hoards of them are coming in to receive friends or relatives coming and similar crowds coming to see their own, off in the trains.
Thus the first thing that strikes a person seeing a
