The overnight train adventure was a success!
Made it to the train station in a taxi and when we arrived a young porter helped me with my bag and took me to the platform, to my train car and helped me find my compartment. That process gave me a lot of anxiety - making sure I found the right spot. I tipped him quite well but he was very helpful and I was very grateful. The family sharing my compartment has been very nice and offered me some dinner. Nice folks!
Did you know? Itarsi is a city and municipality in Madhya Pradesh, India in Narmadapuram District. Itarsi is a key hub for agricultural goods and is the biggest railway junction in Madhya Pradesh. My friends Mr. Singh and Mr. Andrews picked me up and we drove to Padhar, about 90 minutes and we stopped in Shahpur for tea with Mrs. Singh.
