This happened about ten years ago when I was on holiday in India.	
I was making a long train journey from the south of the country to the capital, Delhi. It took three days 	
It was incredibly hot in the train as there was no air-conditioning and there was no drinking water either. 	
On the first afternoon we stopped at a little station and I could see a man outside selling cold bottles of water.	
I asked the people next to me how long we would stay in the station and they said, fifteen minutes. 	
So I got out of the train to buy a bottle of this lovely cold water. 	
I had just paid for the water when the horn of the engine sounded and the train began to move. 	
I shouted 'stop!' but the train kept going, faster and faster with all my luggage inside! 	
I just stood on the platform and stared at the train disappearing into the distance. 	
Then I went to the station master's office and explained what had happened. 	
He asked to see my ticket, which fortunately I had in my pocket. 	
Then they sent a message to the next station to take my luggage off the train. 	
I had to buy another ticket for the next train which was even slower than the first. 	
I picked up my luggage at the next station and eventually I got to Delhi five days later!
