I planned a trip to KAWR from MYS regarding some work, First i thought of Boarding SBC-KAWR express from MYS but i did not get tickets in Tatkal. Then I had some works in SBC too, So i need to go to SBC. I was thanking god as i did not get Tatkal in KAWR express.
Here begins my first leg of journey

Train name: MYS-TN express 16236
I came rushing to the Mysore station to board TPTY passenger, i could have boarded if it was stationed on platform number 1 but it was on platform number 2. As soon as i got my ticket , TPTY started to move. I did not want to take any risk , so i planned to board MYS-TN express. I thought it was my bad luck to miss that passenger but it turned to be a blessing in disguise by not boarding that over crowded passenger. Thank god i did not board that passenger because later i experience one of the best diesel action ever. The empty rake of Tuticorin express was shunted at 17:00 hrs exact i.e. as soon as the exit of TPTY passenger. It occupied its usual platform, platform number 1. The Erode twins got attached with this train. It departed bang on time and it crawled till Naganahalli and started to gain the momentum after crossing Srirangapattna and it stopped at Pandavapura. Then ED twins showed its class, Now i understand why ED shed is pioneer in maintaining WDM's, it was really cracker all the way reaching all stations bang on time. At Mandya MYS passenger crossed us, then there was not any slow down at all. Skipping Bidadi was the best as it ignored Bidadi at MPS. It reached Kengeri 5 minutes before schedule where, then it crawled to SBC without any unscheduled halt where KAWR express headed with WDP 4B crossed us. This was the third time traveling in a train which ran with out any unscheduled halt in KGI-SBC section. The previous trains were Shatabdi and Tippu. It reached SBC ahead of the schedule by 30 minutes. It was an awesome, fantastic and a fabulous run. Then i went to Majestic to board 22:44 Mangaluru bus, it took me to MAQ at 6:30, I alighted in Hampankata before proceeding to Madgaon.
DOUBLING UPDATES:
Mysore-Naganahalli and Bangalore-Yeliyur : completed
Nagahalli-Pandavapura: Naganahalli to Cauvery river south doubling is going good but Cauvery North to Pandavapura doubling is slow.
Pandavapura-Yeliyur: Pandavapura to Chandagirikopal is over , the doubled line has to be linked with Pandavapura but Pandavapura's platform extension to handle 24 coach trains has not seen any significant improvement. Chandagirikopal to Yeliyur is going at a decent speed. So we can expect good things in MYS-SBC line soon
