Not really Surya, just wanted to find more details. Captured a full HD video of PDY HWH Express. I'll upload here soon but its almost 700 MB. The train was so slow that even Senior Citizens can get down anywhere from DVD to SCMN. It's just waste of time in the assumption of saving time. Visakha Express was delayed a bit and forced to wait @ SCMN for this train to cross.

Re# 330867-13                  
even sulphur is inflammable to some extent. They didnt cover the wagons with any plastic cover here in this case too.

Ok here in this case at YPR it was a liquid which reacted with other chemicals as the bottles were not stacked properly in the wagon and at the end authorities came to know that contractor dint had permission to carry acids n all:(
