The train reached Nainpur dot on time at Nainpur Jn. ~ Nainpur is no doubt a heaven for NG trains, a beautiful neat n clean maintained station, which lacks in many major bg junctions. ~ One can get Pohe(10rs), Samosa(10rs), Thali(30rs), Dosa(15rs) as per their choice....

Every train's Loco is duly checked, filling of water takes place here. ~ these r few pics and report to be continued..
