Letter to your Elder Brother, telling him about the discomfort of a Railway journey without Reservation

Dearest Brother,

As I informed you telephonically also I reached here safe and sound yesterday. I’d like to tell you the discomfort I suffered because I had no reservation. As you know, I could not get the reservation so I had to travel in the second class general compartment. The journey was very tiring and cumbersome.

First of all, the train was late by two hours. As soon as the train arrived, I, somehow, managed to push myself into the general compartment.

It was overcrowded, but after one hour, I got half a seat; just managed to sit on the corner of a berth. Six persons were sitting on a seat for three, still it was comparatively comfortable. It was not possible to take rest or sleep for the whole night.

However, the night passed and the train reached Ambala at 5 am I found myself safe and sound but extremely tired.

For the future, I have decided to plan any journey in such a way that either I get a reservation or, if not I would travel by bus.

How are the things going on at your end. Convey my regards to Mom and love to Tini.

Your younger brother, Pulkit
