Thanks, glad to document the journey in real time. They had switched off the power pints at night, so my phone got discharged.had to walk to the eog car next to engine,complained there, and after half an hour someone came to turn on the electric points. Then I was able to use the phone again. The train was almost empty after ern.
Reached Kollam at 11.23, made up lots of time just before Kollam.
