I am therefore went to privy. Just I doing the nuisance that guard making whistle blow for train to go off and I am running with 'lotah' in one hand and 'dhoti' in the next when I am fall over and expose all my shocking to man and female women on plateform. I am got leaved at Ahmedpur station. This too much bad, if passenger go to make dung that dam guard not wait train five minutes for him. I am therefore pray your honour to make big fine on that guard for public sake. Otherwise I am making big report to papers." Okhil Chandra Sen wrote this letter to the Sahibganj divisional railway office in 1909. It is on display at the Railway Museum in NewDelhi. It was also reproduced under the caption "Travelers' Tales" in the Far Eastern Economic Review. Any guesses why this letter was of historic value? It apparently led to the introduction of toilets on trains. maliniluky Full Member - Member Since: Jun 2008 Subject - Re: 100-years old Complaint letter against Indian Railways ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...............Good one Rahul rahul.gupta86 Full Member - Member Since: Aug 2009 Subject - Re: 100-years old Complaint letter against Indian Railways thanks malini .......
