#thisdaythatyear
Today Team Raconteur celebrates the 359th marriage anniversary of King Charles with Princess Catherine of Braganza. Only we celebrate a slight Indian twist.
This largely insignificant (so insignificant that the King didn't even meet his bride for 2 days after she arrived in England) event was what brought the islands of Bombay into the hands of the English as Catherine's dowry and thus began the fairytale story of this city's growth into the financial power house it is today!

#eventfulapril #thisdaythatyear At 3pm on 16th April, 1853, three steam locomotives pulled 14 carriages and 400 passengers from Bori Bunder (present day CSMT) to Tanna (present day Thana). This moment marked the first passenger train journey in India and heralded in the age of Railways.
Today the railways cover more than 125,000 kilometres and connect every nook and corner of the country. Essential for the transport of goods, troops and low cost movement for the common Indian, railways make up the back bone of our country!
