The Samjhauta Express - Pakistan And India Lahore to Delhi - by roothmens
BBC PRESENTATION

The Samjhauta Express commonly called the Friendship Express, is a twice-weekly train – Tuesdays and Fridays – that runs between Delhi and Attari in India and Lahore in Pakistan. The word samjhauta means agreement,accord and compromise in both Hindi and Urdu.
Until the reopening of the Thar Express, this was the only rail connection between the two countries. The train was started on 22 July 1976 following the Shimla Agreement and ran between Amritsar and Lahore, a distance of about 42 km. Following disturbances in Punjab in the late eighties, due to security reasons Indian Railways decided to terminate the service at Attari, where customs and immigration clearances take place. On 14 April 2000, in an agreement between Indian Railways and Pakistan Railways (PR), the distance was revised to cover just under three km.
It was a daily train when the service started, and changed to a bi-weekly schedule in 1994. Earlier the rakes were returned to the home country the same day but later in 2000 the rake remained overnight at that location.
Its termini are Lahore in Pakistan and Delhi in India. The border crossing takes place between Wagah in Pakistan and Attari in India. Originally, this was a through service with the same rake going all the way between the termini; later the Pakistani rake stopped at Attari at which point passengers had to change trains.
Now there is a train from Delhi to Attari where all passengers alight for customs and immigration. This train does not have any commercial stops between Delhi and Attari. It is incorrectly referred to as the Samjhauta Express and it is officially known as the Delhi-Attari or Attari-Delhi Express. The actual Samjhauta Express runs from Attari to Lahore, although the passengers are checked at Wagah, the first station on the Pakistani side. The train service was set up with an agreement between Indian Railways (IR) and Pakistan Railways (PR) to alternately use an Indian and a Pakistani rake and locomotive for the train, six months at a time.
The train usually has between four and eight coaches. The rake supplied by Pakistan is usually hauled by an Alco DL-543 class ALU20 diesel loco (Lahore shed), with the entire train in the standard dark green livery of PR.
The train's first break of service was when it was discontinued on 1 January 2002 in the wake of the terrorist attack on the Indian Parliament on 13 December 2001. Service resumed on 15 January 2004. Service was also suspended following the 27 December 2007, assassination of Benazir Bhutto as a preventive measure to deny militants a high-value target that was of great symbolic importance to both India and Pakistan.

Chandigarh to Kasauli Food Tour | TASTY Bun Gulabjamun + Lemon Chicken + AMAZING Dhaba Food
► Subscribe to Delhi Food Walks:
► More Street Food in Himachal:
Our present culinary destination is the scenic and dreamlike landscapes of Himachal Pradesh where we are about to experience the vibrant culinary diversity that is unique to this mountainous region. This time we took the road as it gives you immense scope to engage with your surroundings. This journey can be divided into two sections. Our first leg comprises of the lovely gastronomic experiences that we amassed while driving between Chandigarh and Kasauli.
The drive, the visual treat and the food were equally heartwarming. There were quite a number of options -some quintessentially local and some popular fares-when it came to fill our stomachs.
So this episode we bring you the lip smacking experience from some of the widely popular eateries across the Kalka Shimla highway and at kasauli.
The first treat was an unusual pick. So at this place named Deli situated on the highway we came across a stretch where the shops were selling mouthwatering pickles. There was an eclectic spread of both veg and non veg pickles kept big steel containers. In the nonveg we tasted mutton, chicken and fish pickle, while in the veg we had karela, lingard, garlic, mushrooms and ginger. Don't miss it if you are a fan of the sharp, intense and acidic flavour of a pickle. We can easily vouch for the sensational taste of these pickles especially the less sour ones.
From there we went to Ishar sweets for their famed kalakand and kulfi.. We tasted two of the seven varieties of kalakand and the rabri kulfi. No wonder both the desserts were true to its reputation. According to the owner such rich and luscious taste can be attributed to the minimalistic, pure and natural ingredients e.g milk sugar and fruit pulp in case of kalakand. The anjeer flavoured kalakand was a stunner.
As we drove ahead further on the Kalka Shimla highway, we halted at the iconic Giani ka Dhaba at Dharampur that is so popular among travelers and food enthusiasts. Patrons yearn for its chicken and dal based delicacies. Here We tried two brilliant dishes-one was the robust dal makhni and the second was the humble lemon chicken. The food, the ambience and the service was amazing.
After half an hour drive through the cool and picturesque landscape, we arrived at kasauli, a quaint hill town full friendly locals, eager tourists, colonial-era architecture and balmy orchards. The food here is as vibrant and eclectic as the convergence of people from across the country and beyond.
We straightaway hurried to Narinder Sweet House ,one of those iconic must visit places to eat in Kasauli. There we tried their hot favourites-gulab jamun, Bun Samosa and the Bun Gulab Jamun. The taste was superlative.
Our last stop in this episode was the small unassuming joint called the Kasauli cafe in hill’s where we sank our teeth into a plateful of delicious whole wheat chicken momos. Having those delicious dumplings in the cold weather was truly gratifying and comforting.
This gastronomic endeavour has been so much fun and delightful.

MUSSOORIE HILL STATION, QUEEN OF HILLS, INDIA
Mussoorie (Garhwali/Hindi: मसूरी, Masūrī) is a hill station and a municipal board in the Dehradun District of the northern Indian state of Uttarakhand. It is located about 35 km from the state capital of Dehradun and 290 km north from the national capital of New Delhi. This hill station, situated in the foothills of the Garhwal Himalayan ranges, is also known as the Queen of the Hills. The adjoining town of Landour, which includes a military cantonment, is considered part of 'greater Mussoorie', as are the townships of Barlowganj and Jharipani.
Being at an average altitude of 1,880 metres (6,170 ft), Mussoorie, with its green hills and varied flora and fauna, is a fascinating hill resort. Commanding snow ranges to the north-east, and glittering views of the Doon Valley and Shiwalik ranges in the south, the town was once said to present a 'fairyland' atmosphere to tourists.
The highest point is Lal Tibba with a height of over 2,290 metres (7,510 ft).

Extract from Home Life (1928)
Colonial family life under the Raj - Join the Hunter family for a tour of colonial domestic life in 1920s north India in this three-part amateur film.
Made by an English family living in north India during the heyday of the Raj, this amateur film reveals the grandeur in which middle-class English colonials lived. It also lets us see how the labours of a large retinue of Indian servants helped to create the intimate spaces of ‘private’ family life, including the summer retreat to the hill station of Mussoorie.
In showing us their ‘home away from home’ the Hunters’ film gives no indication of the anti-British agitation that animated Indian politics in this period. The film was made in 1928, the year in which Indian leaders boycotted the British Government-appointed Indian Statutory Commission and began to draw up their own constitution for an independent India.
