Re# 1210054-60              
Here is a report continuing from my side(This is my first report in IRI so please apologize for any mistakes).
After team 1 has boarded MSB bound emu upto TBM, we decided to stay for sometime at POTI and later went for lunch at a nearby hotel just outside the station. Then later we came to the station and waited for pallavan express. Soon rain started and the climate was awesome(RF during rain is a heaven).
Our long wait ended soon. As the Clock ticked 4:30PM, Pallavan express comes raging with some

special Dual tone honking from ED WAP-4 22555 raging past us at great speed. And Special people(Team 1) onboard Pallavan express waved us happily.
After that we waited for chendur express and soon it crossed us @4:51PM with AJJ WAM-4 21235 with Good honking and at decent speed. Then sigo and SGPrasad decided to buy tickets to return home. In the meanwhile we missed an emu bound for MSB.
As the rain stopped, we started talking casually about our future RF trips, Proceed was given in the TBM side signal. A Memu approched and we thought of boarding it thinking it is the MSB Fast MEMU( Which later goes to Vellore Cantt) but it was an empty one going to TBM Shed.
As we waited further, Cholan express bound for Chennai Egmore came with offlink RPM WAP-4 22960 (usual link is RPM/AJJ WAP1/WAM4) blasting at good speed with some good honking show.
Then finally the MSB Fast MEMU came but it was crowded heavily. So we decided to skip this one and after 10 mins we boarded another EMU upto TBM after we bid goodbye to Utkarsh who lives and studies in SRM university campus.
From TBM we changed to another emu since this one was also crowded. We bought some snacks and cooldrinks at the platform and boarded another emu.
Then we got a call from two other railfans Sarabha Saaluvesh and Adithya Vaidhyanadhan who were doing RF at Tirisulam who joined us and we all started leg pulling TVC mail.
As we approached Guindy, we decided to capture CAPE bound Thirukkural. We went to the other platform and took some Group pictures in Adithya's cam and waited for Thirukkural. As the clock read 6:40PM , RPM WAP-1 ( i forgot loco num) entered the station with headlamps ON and some light honking as it skipped us at around 60-70KMPH.
Then we said goodbyes to each other and Sarabha and Adithya left the station in the scooter they came and we boarded another emu and got down at MBM and went home.
Together it was one excellent RF for me since i came out for RF after a long time in MS-CGL side. Many thanks to Sigo and SG Prasad who invited me to come for this event. Thank you guys and im also thankful to other members who organized this wonderful event.

These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
