We marched on and we reached the magic exhibit. The good thing about the magician was that he did not keep us in the dark about the working of his tricks. He explained to us how he did all of his tricks and even leaked the secrets behind every trick. He explained that there is nothing such as magic and every trick he did was backed by science and logic. He also told us many other secrets that I am sure I will remember later on in life. It was a memorable trip and will be etched in my memory for years to come.

The museum radiated the effulgent history of the Indian Railways, which was quite impressive. All authorities present there gave us their undivided attention and every fact revealed about the museum had us wanting more!

Right from its inception 150 years ago, the Indian Railways has been a masterly, neat and well-executed public service. The Indian Railways has run smoothly into the 21st Century and the trip gave us yet another reason to be proud of our country’s historic past. The train models that we saw were quaint and majestic. In the auditorium, right at the beginning, the video clips shown to us set the tone for the rest of the excursion. Be it Shah Rukh Khan dancing atop a moving train or Saif Ali Khan serenading his beloved — the Indian Railways has seen it all.
