Train Journey- A day in a train to Bihar

When you hear the name of the train journey, you thought of an enjoyable trip with friends or family with lots of games and adventure during the trip. Today I want to tell you about the journey in sleeper class to Bihar.

Whenever you board a train to Bihar you feel a little different, you don't think of enjoying you think of adjustment you have to make during the journey. Whether you book your tickets advance 119 days to last day, you will get a waiting list, and with that waiting list, you hope to get a confirmed seat. Delayed of the train is a common thing, A train can be 4-5 hrs late and yet termed as normal in this route. A fear in yourself always possessed that how much-crowded train will be.


After you board the train you will see that the numbers of passengers will board the train and purchase a ticket there itself which is legal. Crowd after that will increase and therefore the confirmed seat passengers have to adjust.
In Bihar going train, you will see the number of peoples came to see off the passengers is greater than the passengers😂.
They will only leave when the train will start. Luggage is another important problem, people have approximately 2 bags per family member excluding the food bag( In which we carry food for our journey). Allowed space given for luggage is always small for us as our luggage is so much big and wide in shape it can't fit under the seat.
People carry jute bags also which is a trending bag fashion for Bihari. During the summer a cartage of mangoes when we return from the village is compulsory, we don't care railways have a place to get it to adjust or not. We don't obey what the limit of luggage is allowed.

After so much allotment of special trains to Bihar, we still have a problem to commute as there is a very large population to travel.
Every festival we want to get back to our village and travel back to the city after the festive season.

During normal days also we have so much crowd that you can't get confirm ticket before 2 months of the journey.

All journey was not that hectic, but as I am traveling right now it is more complicated than this one.
Still going to the village by train is the best journey. It's worth the inconvenience.😊
