London Train Encounter

Image
 London Train Encounter London can be a very harsh place; especially if you are from India or sub-continent. If you have traveled in a Indian public transport you would have noticed that the majority of people love to talk. Talk to each other, talk to their maids on the phone, talk to the bus conductor, talk to the person sitting in the next bus or just moan about the conditions of road during the monsoon. In London the scene is quite radical. There pin drop silence on the trains. The most noise you can hear is from music leaking out of the headphones from your neighbor. And this travel in silence continues for years. In India if you travel with the same person in the bus by the second day you would have had a nice chat with them? Here even after 2 years traveling together in the same train sitting next to each other for 6months you would be lucky to exchange a smile. It feels as if there is a tax on smiling.underground map london transport london underground fares fun...
