A train journey across the Konkan Coast (Western Maharashtra, India) is one of my favourite chugging trips!
Lush green paddy fields with thrifty farm folk tending to their crop.
Of course monsoon particularly brings out the best in this region but it's great any time of the year!
To experience the Konkan Coast, take a train from Mumbai to Goa: the Mandovi Express (day train) or Konkan Kanya Express (night train but almost day time when it crosses southern Maharashtra) amongst a host of other trains traversing this line.

| A little temple by the roadside |

| Geometry in Nature! |
