have a life time of nostalgic experiences etched into the memory, from Pakistan.
Of train journeys from Karachi to Lahore and Rawalpindi,
by Tezgam and Karachi Express
and the Overnight Passenger Trains from Lahore to Peshawar
This weekend we decided to go Niagara BY TRAIN , for a change.
It was a great experience. The trains here are a LITTLE better than the Tezgam and the Passenger Trains running between Lahore and Narowal :halo:
Some Pics to Share ..

Nice pics James bhai :k: you sure had fun..
Thank for sharing..
The train look awesome to travel with. Its always nice to travel by train, you get to see so much more than by plane, warna sirf baadal hi nazar aatay hain
JB pra very hi tight pics. I have travelled in both VIA and Shalimaar Express alot. Honestly i didnt find any difference in either. Dono saali late. Once the VIA train i was boarding was 50 minutes late!!!
I was at the Falls last night , That was some serious kick as$ firework display.
The best Niagara Falls ever had they say, and I we were there to see it!
I assume you were travelling to the Canadian side of Niagara from Toronto. Nice pics. I didn’t knew that Amtrak also services Canada. Don’t you guys have your own rail service or something?
When I was in Pakistan in Dec 04, I insisted that I would go to Lahore via train from Khanewal. My mamoo advised me that we should take the bus but I said nope, I want to go by train. Well, the qulli bhai jaan lied to us and got us seats in a train that stopped at every station and a journey of about 4 hours took 7 hours. Ask Code Red what I looked like when I arrived in Lahore because he was the one who came to pick me up from the station
Waisay i swear everytime i go from toronto to chicago by train i watch myself board a train that has VIA plastered all over it and when i get off at chicago it has AMTRAK written all over it. Now there must be some explanation which im too lazy to figure out but its still freaky.
Memories! I’ve been to that station myself. When I went to the US, I travelled from New York to Niagara by train and then from Niagara to Toronto by bus.
