Thumbs up indiamike.com's first charter trip?

How would everyone like to charter a Darjeeling Himalayan Railway train?

A steam engine & 3 carraiges for Rs30,000 a day.

I'll drive

Full details.

Yeah after we are done, it will be the last time they will rent it out.

It would be like "Animal House" on the rails.

I could slide around the floor on my backside with a handbroom sweeping and hoping for tips. Everything out the carriage door onto the tracks for the locals to pick over.

I would give you a really good tip to see you do that Colin, but ecologically I would have to insist you disposed of the rubbish in an environmentally sound way.

I'd love to! Seems nobody wants to go to India with me, I may as well make it a group thing!
