The emotion you feel when you’re a German pretending to be an American pretending to be a Mexican luchador and you’ve not only been accepted, but anointed, as the biggest star in AAA because you’re truly one of them.
If you want to fall in love with a train journey, take the Vande Bharat and if you want to stop travelling in trains, take Uday. Worst train ever. Pathetic design, poor ergonomics, small luggage space and horrible journey guaranteed.
