Lucknow to Haridwar, August 8

Overnight train, 2 A/C class
Surprisingly, not too bad. We shared a carriage with a couple of soldiers heading up to Haridwar for training, so this train trip we weren't as concerned about security, at least. The train was much the same a our previous experience, basic beds, basic bedding, but this time we got some sleep. All in all, not too bad, but then, you can't always guarantee you'll get such good company.
