There is a line that I personally love which says “No one can tell your story so tell it yourself, No one can write your story so write it yourself”. A writer swims in the ocean of thoughts and ideas which he puts into words and expresses and that is what I do. I travel all across the country to find out new ideas for my stories that made me what I am today. So this time I decided to go to Guwahati in search of a new story as this is one of the places where many writers like me got inspiration.
So I booked tickets online as I always do because this is cheaper and way better than wasting time standing in a long line in the station. The whole process of planning for the correct train is as tough as switching on your computer! Hope you understand me. So I booked my tickets on the Ypr Dbrg Express (05901) which is a long distance train and stops at Chennai and Guwahati both for passengers to board and get down easily specially in the Guwahati Railway Station.
Why I Find Planning For Trains Important?
When a person is leaving from home for work in the morning he or she is already planning inside mind about the route to be taken. Similarly when I am travelling I make sure that everything is in place so that I have a stress free journey. For me I first start with
• Planning for the train through the lists available on the portals and choose the shortest and fastest route to reach my destination.
• I look for facilities that will be provided in the train and make sure that I read all the details that is given on the portal beforehand and finally,
• I always look for cost effective tickets as there offer pretty good discounts when you book ticket using online ticketing portals.
My Story In The Guwahati Railway Station
My journey was pretty long and it took me two days to reach my destination. I have a habit of standing at a place and looking around hoping I will get some inspiration for my writing. As soon as I got down at the Guwahati Railway Station I walked a little and looked around and that was the movement that I got the idea of my story. I was about to write about the life of coolies and vendors of the railway station and how they work relentlessly day and night helping passengers with their needs in the station.
This is a very beautifully built station which is located in the Paltan Bazar area of the city of Guwahati and has 7 platforms and multiple lines that connect to almost all the north eastern states on India. The platform has an own parking space and is adjacent to the main bus terminal through which hundreds of busses take tourists.
There are first class and second class waiting rooms for passengers then the remarkable thing is the cleanliness of the station which actually touched me. The station is well lit in the nights and there are foot over bridges on all platforms to make the commuting of passengers easy.
