WAP-4 going "Mad" through "Madpur" at 110 kmph and earth shattering honking!!!
.
.
50 minutes late running 12886 Bhojudih (BJE)- Santaldih (SNTD)- Shalimar (SHM) ARANYAK Superfast Express headed by off-link 22320 HWH shed WAP-4E simply blasts through the station Madpur on SER's Kharagpur- Panskura stretch at its MPS of flat 110 km/hr.. The loco was especially in a raging mood, and keeps on...
more... groaning like a mad bull while thrashing the station.
The Kharagpur- Midnapore- Bankura- Adra- Purulia- Chakradharpur route provides an alternate route for the already extremely congested Kharagpur- Tatanagar- Chakradharpur route, and also for trains plying on Kharagpur- Adra- Joy Chandi Pahar- Asansol route, Khagarpur- Adra- Bhaga- Gomoh route, and also a few other branch lines.
The train follows the Bhojudih- Santaldih- Adra- Bankura- Bishnupur- Midnapore- Kharagpur- Santragachi- Shalimar route of SER. The regular link of this train is SRC WAP-4 or TATA WAM-4.
