Well, to my utter shock, our Down Burdwan Jn.- Howrah Jn. EMU (via Chord) got the proceed order before the 16138R Kharagpur shed WDM- 3A headed 12841 Coromandel Express (heading to platform from Santragachi car shed) and started heading towards the platform. At 00:39, 22638 WAP- 4 (HWH shed) headed 12023 Howrah Jn.- Patna Jn. Jan Shatabdi Express crosses us. You can find conversation between me and Srijit about this train's rake sharing.. At 02:03, we cross thw stationary 36221 WDS- 6R and at 02:50, 22523 HWH shed WAP- 4 before going under the legendary 1933 built road bridge, which still contained a scribbling on the top reading 1933 EIR (East India Railway). At 03:14, we...
more... find a shunter shunting a HCPV (High Capacity Parcel Van). Finally we came through another shocker (well, Howrah Jn. never dissapoints an enthu railfan).. Our EMU pulled into pl- 8!!! As a fact, Pl-8 (capacity of hauling 21 coaches train) and pl-9 (capacity of hauling 24 coach train) share the CAB ROAD, and are exclusively meant for high profile trains!!! Same is the case with pl- 21 and pl-22 of New Complex.. Sorry for the absurd ending, as I got nervous while seeing the RPF eying me...
