i have composed a poem right now on the occasion of railways birthday...i request for your patient reading and feedback...
.
thanks to one and all to remember me on my birthday,
i wish for many such more,bt never for the dooms day,
bt wishes are all that i can make as for now,
the challenges are tough and may make me bow down...
.
There have been ups and downs,twists and turns,
bt i run,be it storm/gayle,rain...
Read more...

or even if sunlight burns...
Mountains,seas,landscapes and tunnels,
all are covered smiling by me and in fast channels...
.
introduced by alliens,maintained by natives,
i carry u,ur frnds and even all ur relatives,
i carry one and all irrespective of religion,race and caste
i travel proudly,safely and above all i travel quite fast...
.
Faced many challenges,modifications,routes and crunch,
many budhets,proposals bt nevr thot of having my brunch,
be it okha,vishakapatnam,ghy or cape
didnt even have time to reach for the back of my nape...
.
So many new trains,routes,stations and projects,
bt still i try and fulfill,even though a bit delayed,all my targets,
difficult for me to maintain my punctuality,
bt still i try to keep up with pace,competition,time and reality...
.
Lhb,improved signals,wap7 and wag9,
all help me in being fast,safe,punctual and fine,
not only goods,passenger,coal and cargo,
i also carry army,ammunition,tankers and their outgrowths...
.
Rajdhani,shatabdi,duronto and garib raths,
freights,passengers,express...all ply on the same paths,
i am proud of the administration that hs employed millions,
though it has turned bankrupt in serving the trillions...
.
I plead all of you to do your part by getting tickets for one and all,
that is the only way you can contribute to prevent my downfall,
i will try to reach evry corner of the country and its men,
even though i am tired,need rest and suffering from severe pain...
.
Its not possible for me to please one and all,
bt i ll serve evryone till the day i fall,
i will serve everyone till the day i fall...
