Having sent a request, in advance, to the station-master, we found attached to the train a through carriage for Silliguri, where we arrived early the next morning on the way to Darjiling. Ten weeks later, after having been as far north as the Khaibar Pass, we left Rawal Pindi for <strong>Kashmir</strong>.
