On board 16312 Kochuveli Bikaner Express for a solo RF visit to the Panval Viaduct near Ratnagiri. A window seat in S11--17 with an open view of the country-side. Hills, tunnels, a lush green exterior carpeted by paddy fields punctuated by huge coconut plantations. A veritable feast for the optical senses. Now do I sound lyrical ? Promises to be a thrilling & unforgettable day journey through the Konkan railway network. Just arrived at Murdeshwar.

My chauffeur on the 15 km long journey to Panval Viaduct was Auto Pilot Irshad who in turn was referred by his colleague Raju. Incidentally Raju had ferried Admins Pramodh & MSN when they visited this place early last month. Grateful to PK for the reference as he even telephoned Raju to take good care of me while I am here. However Raju could not accompany me as he was performing Ganapathi Puja at his home which is just 3 kms before the site. As he was busy shopping for the Puja, he instructed Irshad to take me to his house on the way to the viaduct, to have a darshan of Ganpati Bappa.
I agreed and went to Raju's house...
