Re# 728075-5                  
Hello :) I am from Pune. For DDS Hiking, we (me + 3 friends)took Goa express from Pune to Castle Rock. The train departed Pune around 5 PM and reached Castle rock at around 3 am in morning. Then we slept in the station till 6 am and started walking towards DDS. We had few snack breaks in between and reached Dudhsagar falls around 12 PM. We had a good amount of fun there, covering Dudhsagar falls and walked a km further to the famous View point (the place where i clicked the above picture). Later we walked back to station and had a engine ride on WDG4 from Dudhsagar to Qulem (QLM). We caught our return Goa express at 4 PM from QLM and reached Pune next day morning at 4 AM.

Re# 728075-6                  
thanks for your reply. is there any accomodation at CLR or QLM? what do you suggest; hike from CLR to DDS or from QLM to DDS. Also during ur hike, any passenger trains stopped at DDS station or more importantly DWF (dudhsagar waterfall point). we plan to make it a 2D/1N leisure program. Arrive around noon at CLR/QLM, explore local places. Next day, morning hike to DDS and take an afternoon passenger/ freight train towards Madgaon. Nothing is finalized as of now. Let me know your views.
Also requesting members & guests for their suggestion.

Traveled by this train on last saturday from BZA to SCMN(DVD) by B1 coach.
TTE allotted berths after train arrived. Started at 3:15 am. At 5:30 am we are RJY. B1 is a new coach looks fine. After GT jerks, enjoyed the smooth ride of this train. It got BZA WAM.
Taken couples of loop lines as main line occupied after SLO. Reached DVD 5 min early at 8:02. Started from DVD on time...Later we stopped at SCMN bypass outer for some time...Finally reached PF3 (unofficial) of SCMN at 8:40 am. I got down there.
BZA-DVD in 4 hr 45 min with so much ease.

Don't know why Diverted trains only runs with "0" slack. Actually slack is based on zone/Div change also. But its planned in a great manner than VSKP skipping is beneficial.

Yeah. Nothing meets dushta politics of Ecor and SER.
Slack is usually towards a big station. Since VSKP is skipped, slack was removed.
