Hitchhike down, explore the operation, come home, write the article and submit it.

The title of the article would be longer than the article itself...

You might try to author a "GO FUND ME" page? 

Suggest funding a one way to Pakistan.

  I saw an article that GE was building an order of locomotives for the government there.    Maybe, an ocean voyage in one of those cabs, might give you some time to study English Grammar.

   English is the business language, but Urdu is the national language ( along with something like about 60 or so, regional languages). 

              Bon Voyage! Cando!  Captain

The PBS show Tracks Ahead, which is sponsored by Kalmbach, already did a story on this RR.

"NGH" = "Not Gonna Happen" (I had to look it up . . . Dunce ).

"This Fascinating Railroad Business" (title of 1943 book by Robert Selph Henry of the AAR)
