Small change

Sir, — The report ``History back on the rails' (April 17) says that the second class fare of the first train which ran from Bori Bunder to Thane was `One rupee, one anna and six paise'. In those days, four paise used to make one anna. The fare was, therefore, one rupee two annas and two paise.
