The train's loco link was changed to Wap now, and when everyone was enjoying Manmad's tasty item, train started and gave run like anything till Jalgaon, where it slowed...

Bhusawal, Bsl, one of the finest stations enroute, hot Masala Dosa, fruits, Bananas were available on platform itself, I was desperate to shampoo my hairs as I was tired with long travel, the stall on pf which is a book stand was having shampoo oil along with medicines.

It is a misconception that these surnames are in Maharashtra only. These are very common in Central and Northern parts of Karnataka. Out of 10 homes one can find a surname of Kulkarni / Deshpande / Joshi / Patil in 8-9 homes. And many of them doesn't have any link with Maharashtra.
