Three friend on a Pakistan train, travelling between Peshawar and Lahore. The woman on the left is Sally Whitton from Guildford, Surrey. The men are Scott Michael Karpuk from Boston, Massachusetts and Gary McKibben from Albury, New South Wales. Two years ago when Rory Maclean retraced the trail for his book ‘Magic Bus’ one trail veteran told him, ‘The road was a great leveller. It took everyone: guys, girls, poor, posh. No one had heard of AIDS. It cost us nothing to live. Those days were like a warp in time.’
