"I must have been truly excited over those journeys, my heart yearning for the train to steam into Chandannagar station, for even after fifty years, I can still remember the name of every station on the route and in the correct order: Liluah, Belur, Bally, Uttarpara, Konnagar, Rishra, Serampore, Sheorapuli, Baidyabati, Bhadreshwar, Mankundu and then, finally, Chandannagar."
