Maharashtra State Road Transport MCU9804 in Nagpur Bus Terminal
Ashok-Leyland PD3 (with 4 headlights!)
I would have liked to have taken many more pictures at the Nagpur Bus Station where there was a number of unusual vehicles that I did not see anywhere else, including a bus pulling a passenger trailer. But the sight of a group of camera-wielding europeans was too interesting for the local population and a large crowd rapidly formed which, while not overtly hostile, made photography too difficult so we retreated back to the hotel.
Being Brits we took refuge in the bar where a rock 'n' roll band was repeatedly pounding out "Jingle Bells." As we sat along the bar we couldn't help noticing a large rat squirming between the liquor bottles on the shelf at the back. We mentioned this to the barman who gazed at it for a few seconds then turned back and said, "Oh yes, it's a rat!" and went back to washing glasses. India takes some getting used to.
