History of Mandovi Express May 13 (1:51PM) Blog Post# 751398-0 ★KR ♥ Lover ♥ Forever★ Added by: amit singh ™ ♥♪ ♫♥** May 13 (3:48PM)History of Mandovi Express This train started by Mr. Nitish Kumar (Rail Minister in 1999) as Mumbai CST Madgaon Intercity. It used to run on the TT of JS. After 2001 Mumbai CST Madgaon Intercity train has been converted in Express train in monsoon by giving more coach and halts. In monsoon by seing the high priority of this express train, they didnt changed it again in Intercity and it renamed as Mandovi Express after the name of longest river in Goa. Its TT has now given to JS. Till now this train is running as Express. Its old loco link was WDM 3a/d of ED/KYN and after getting RSA with Konkan Kanya, both were given WDP4 of Krishnarajapuram(Now WDP4b of KJM). Later on both trains got ISO certified. An Analysis of Nagpur Diamond Crossing  *** AN ANALYSIS OF DIAMOND CROSSING AT NAGPUR ***. Ref Blog: /blog/post/750874 . Location of Diamond Crossing: While going from Nagpur towards Gondia, in between Nagpur and Itwari stations . Situation-1: Trains from West Terminating at Nagpur: (Sewagram, Nandigram, Pune-Nagpur GR, Prerana) - No Diamond Crossing  Situation-2: Trains from Itarsi side terminating at Nagpur (BSL-NGP, INDB-NGP, etc.) – No Diamond Crossing Situation 3: Trains from Bilaspur side terminating at Nagpur: Pass through Diamond Crossing to enter NGP station Situation 4: Trains from West going to East (Azad Hind, Jnaneshwari, PUNE/CSTM-HWH Duronto, etc.) – Cross the Diamond crossing to continue their journey towards Gondia / Bilaspur. Same as pic in Entry# 750874 - Take right turn after departing Nagpur  Situation 5: Trains from South going to North (Rajdhanis/TN/GT/Kerala/AP/Dakshin/APSK/TNSK/KSK, etc.) – These trains enter Nagpur from Balharshah – Sewagram side. As Sewagram is on the CSTM-NGP-HWH Mainline, these trains enter NGP from mainline itself just like the trains from West-East do. As a result, you can see the above trains on any of PFs at NGP. . When they depart NGP, they take a left turn towards Amla / Itarsi side. The passengers in these trains are able to see the diamond crossing on the right side, but they do not cross it as the train is entirely on a different track. . Please consider the Pink Line. The Green line has... Read more...  Situation 6: Narrow Gauge trains of NGP (SECR) Cross the Diamond Crossing (NGP-CWA Passenger)  South – North track: This is generally used by freight trains as this line joins the Nagpur freight yard located parallel to the station. The yard is connected to both HWH Mainline towards Sewagram and Itarsi line. . Freight Yard to Itarsi side: Cross Diamond Crossing Freight Yard to Gondia / Bilaspur side: No Diamond Crossing Freight Yard to Sewagram Side: No Diamond Crossing . The above inferences are purely my own based on own experiences and study of maps. Any corrections in the above data are most welcome. Waiting for inputs from Nagpur based... Read more...
