Train 2 - Urapakkam

During our college days, after the classes end at 4.00 pm we had to wait till 4.40 pm to tkae the train. We had good time in the station with friends waiting for the trains. This incident that I could remember was one such evening when we took the 4.40 train back home. As usual the train was crowded and that day we boarded a different compartment ( not the ladies one) a small one in the middle of the train something similar to the driver's cabin. It was closed but we jus opened it and got in to it. We jus started with some buttons and levers there. My friend Bharadwaj jus pulled some lever when the train was stationed at Urapkkam ( 2 station from our college) and the connecting arms over the train to the electrical lines came down and the train did not start. We were then scared and got out of the compartment and jus boarded another one as if we did not know what happened. Bharadwaj jus very frieghtened when we threatened him that we will inform the guard , to see his reaction.Later after if I remember well say 30-45 mins the train again started to move. It was jus fun and we talked abt that incident for a couple of days about that in college.
