Thanks Nikhil, the trains may have come from the same factory. I did love the night train and have traveled on a few in my teens. There was a time when a sleeper was cheaper than flying. I could travel for 12 hours, sleep, read a book and be rested when I arrived. I could also buy a drink on the sleeper when I was underage :D
I remember a little bit of trepidation, wondering if the steward would decide to ask my age when he brough my drink to my little cabin. I was sporting a bit of a beard at the time. Maybe that made me look older than 17 :D
Ah, this brought back some fond memories of night travel on Indian Railways. Immediately followed by some very unpleasant memories!

I’m going to pretend like I missed that last sentence 😂👍🏽
