Sheikh Chilli had not been on a train after the train journey he had made as a small child of four years. Once, he had to go to Delhi, so he chose to go by train. Sheikh’s friend Lallan fetched the train ticket for him. He then asked Lallan about the appearance of the train. Lallan told him that trains are big and black with smoke coming out. As Sheikh walked on the platform, he saw a huge man, who was wearing a black coat and was smoking. Sheikh jumped on that man’s back and said, “Take me to Delhi, O Train!” The man on whose back Sheikh had jumped on was actually the ticket checker. He shook Sheikh off his back and shouted, “Are you mad? What are you doing? Get off my back immediately!” Foolish Sheikh wondered why the train threw him off when he had a ticket!
