Tumakuru station is undergoing re-modelling. The new 4th PF is almost complete. Here are a few pics of new FoB, PF 4 concretisation, PF 2-3 levelling.
Also the loco reversal of GTL Alco.

Are they constructing only 4Pfs ?? I feel its less if they plan to start Suburban trains to Bengaluru, also new lines like Rayadurga-Tumakuru and Davangere-Sira-TK will come up in near future.

Yes. something has happened to SWR, the pace of work at TK was very fast. In the hour I was waiting they completed at least 100 m of PF2 edge-wall by installing cement blocks with JCB, filling the gaps with cement and levelling the PF.
-
At new line too the entire PF 2 main line was topped-up by crushed stones by the 2 trucks in half-hour. They were waiting for ballast packing machine to come back from Thippasandra to finish the work on PF2 by evening.

SSE office? Behind PF 1? They have dug up that place. Maybe track will be laid. People were struggling to get onto the Vasco train due to mud and all the work, so maybe they are doing things fast.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
