Smile Fascinating website on Indian trains

If you have a thing for trains, you should find this site interesting:

http://irfca.org/~jayb/Chennai.html

I made sure that I used trains (I could have flown just as easily) whenever I could while in India last Fall.

Anyone know where I can find a video/audio file with a train chaiwallah saying "Chai! Garam Chai!" and its many variations? There should be a CD.

Among the IMers, myself, rangss and gopalk are also members of IRFCA. I do not know whether there is any other IMer who is a silent-visitor to this Group.
