TATA Steel Express - Second Sitting sasta bhi, sabse achha bhi - Ravi Raj

Glad to hear about the Queen celebrating her 80 years run. She must be young even today. I had the privilege to enjoy the journey on Deccan Queen from Victoria Terminus (CST now) to Poona (Pune) about 35 years ago with my wife and 4 years old daughter for a weekend sojourn. It was one of the most pleasant trip I am still nostalgic about and so is my wife. Everything was simply charming about the decor, journey including the food and the service. In those days there were no Rajdhani Exp. or Geetanjali. Deccan Queen used to be among the best in India. I hope that the age has not withered her and she is still as young, beautiful and attractive as when I first saw her in 1974. - Basu Thakur, Kolkata-
