It was a\u00a0 usual\u00a0 mid summer hot afternoon in Pune on April 4th . We had planned to take some of \u00a0our students\u00a0 to \u00a0Joshi Railway museum and wondered whether we had done the right thing in asking the students\u00a0 to come all the way from far away places like Pirangut and Bhugaon Road.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
When about 40\u00a0 students arrived with their teachers,looking at the positive energy the group showed \u00a0we\u00a0 realized that we had\u00a0 done the right thing. The students were energetic and eager to see what lay ahead.<\/span><\/div>\n

Joshi Museum was built by Mr. Balkrishna Joshi and exhibits finest of craftsmanship and minute details with which it has been built. It is also\u00a0 maintained to perfection even after so many years of\u00a0 inception. It has on display miniature models of moving \u00a0trains , monorails and\u00a0 bullet trains \u00a0and railway stations. The exact replica created of a small European town\u00a0 proves once again that\u00a0 God is in details. With exciting commentary filled with subtle humor, the 30 minute show\u00a0 has never a dull moment and had all the students curious and engrossed. Besides having the students excited , the child in every teacher surfaced and one could sense that from the smiles one could see across the faces of children as well as grown ups.<\/span><\/div>\n
