The breath-taking images were originally posted by the account ‘The Train Story’, whose bio read “Picturesque Biography. An Initiative for the Indian Railways Network.” The images are apparently a part of ‘Chapter: The Train Chaser’.

The caption for the images in the page reads, “Standing at the door, as the train departs slowly from the station, hearing the sunset’s Islamic call to prayer from far, waving to the children standing on the track side, I once again begin my journey and this time to experience the night on the railway tracks. As the train speeds up through the city area, a different view strikes my eyes and that’s the flashing of lights, just like any sci-fi movie scene. At the door, I witness this magical play of light through the moving train. To be continued… Commemorating 75 years of Independence.”
