Day 3 Kolkata train to Bodh Gaya

Well a quiet morning and unfortunately no taxi adventure before our first train trip ! Today Monday is a busy work day and cross town traffic is frantic ! We cross the Hooghly River and Howrah bridge and negotiate the mammoth Howrah train station where a million people pass through each day ! It’s back in time and overflowing with people ! We have a surprisingly spacious and comfortable train berth for four of us and the train takes off ON TIME! It’s a five hour ( we hope) journey !
The sun has set as we get tea ! On through Asansol junction .... Dhanbag ....Paransnath and dinner too ! Arrival time on Gaya is 1030pm ! A short drive to Hostel !Read more
