Riding the Elevated Metro Train

Elevated Train just opened around 6 months ago.
Most people riding are doing so for fun and somthing new to do.
So far, they only have a few miles of track usable with only 6 stations complete.
Route covers from close to our hotel going back to the east.
Plan will eventually include having a loop around the entire city - Hopefully they won't take as long as our Kellogg expansion !



Each Station has many security people - all passengers are screened - searching for things that could be used to damage the tracks or trains - serious.
No cameras are allowed to take picutres inside the terminals therefore I have none -  so far.





Pictures can be taken once inside the cars and away from the station.
This is a vast area inside the city which has not yet been developed.
Very expensive land.

This is Bangalore's main source of rail transporation and has been around for a long time.
People can take this train to various spots around the city.
It's connnected to a central terminal where you can then switch trains and travel to differnet cities - Very common for most our people to travel around India.
