Another Trip Page from the Konkan Belt…….

My relatives had come down to my Panaji Residence for the holidays. It was then that we planned a two day trip to Murudeshwar, Mookambika, Udupi, Dharmasthala & Subramanya…

Back at office it was Audit time and getting a leave sanctioned was really tough. But God was gracious. Having readied everything for Audit and the CA team getting satisfied with more than 75% of the papers, my 2 day leave got sanctioned late on Tuesday Night.

On Wednesday Morning, got readied and left home for Madgaon Railway Station to catch the Konkan King –12133 Mangalore Super Fast Express. I was tracking its current position with the help of IRI, KR website and IVRS. King was running one hour behind schedule then.

By 06.45 am, we had brought few unreserved tickets upto Byndoor –Mookambika Road, and entered the station. The station was quite and cool in the early morning hours. Where there is IRI, there is a way….. I went straight to PF 2 where I knew, the Konkan king was to arrive..

It was time for some RF. A whining WDP 4 lay tethered in the pit line. With no announcements, 12780 Vasco bound Goa Express chugged into PF 1, an hour late with its usual Gooty Shed WDM 3A. Though the announcements were made later after arrivial, it didn't get d desired effect.... An Extra 3A coach was attached to the train. The 3A coach belonging to West Central Railway is most likely to be privately booked as it was the last coach, even after the SLR cum Guard’s van. The same was detached at MAO.

The task ahead for the idle WDP was clear. After Goa Express left, it slowly wound its way to PF 1 after a few criss crossovers and coupled itself to the Extra 3A coach.

Meanwhile, the 3 coach Karwar Madgaon DMU arrived on PF 3 brimming full of passengers…..

To be continued….

P.S. Pics will follow later due to slow net connection...

Re# 727474-3                  
The 3 coacher DMU was soon shunted away to the yard, once all the passengers had alighted….
It had to make way for the Vasco Bound Kulem Passenger which arrived in PF # 3, ten minutes later hauled by a Baldy WDG 3A of Gooty Shed….

It was 07.45 am and still there was no sign of the Konkan King. As per site info, it had already crossed Thivim around half an hour ago. No sooner did I think of it, the loudspeaker sprang to life announcing the entry of the King

...

Another few minutes went by a bluish livery loco could be seen round the corner…… Hazily, I thought of WDM 3D of Erode Shed which confounded me… Was it an Offlink from the regular Kalyan shed’s WDG Shakti?

The loco slowly zoomed into view. It was none other than Kalyan Shed’s Blue Liveried WDM 3D.

“Wow” I thought…. “Since when did Kalyan Shed started getting these?”

...Clearly I was missing something in these three years away from my town Dombivli….

11390 WDM 3D slowly chugged into PF 2 hauling the Super Fast. Nearly, all coaches were branded with LIC advertisements. We had positioned ourselves to get into the last UR coach but Alas !!! It was full with RPF or Military Guys who closed the doors saying it was reserved for them. But neither the coaches nor the CC in the indicators didn’t bear those markings…..

So I lead the group and after checking the chart in S3 and found 7 seats were to run vacant from MAO in the second bay… We got in the seats and awaited for the train to start…. For the TTe who can issue us the berths……

PART 3: THE JOURNEY BEGINS

The Super Fast King started dot after its scheduled halt of 10 minutes. The seats and berths which got empty in Kankawali and Madgaon were filled with Officer Goers and holiday makers alike. With many of the trains running to Kerala running fully packed, many of the co passengers were travelling to MAJN from where they were to take a connecting passenger trains or buses as available.

Once out in the mainline, it looked like the WDM 3D beasty had gone crazy, like a bull which has been set loose............ It started blasting its way and continued the

same throughout the journey. Many times, it did cross 100 kmph barrier and now effect of non availability of SIMRAN was clear.

Canacona, Asnoti were all blasted away with its run… till it reached its first scheduled halt at Karwar. Meanwhile, with the ingenious Konkan railway dynamic train position, I was awaiting to catch the golden moment, when the Konkan King was to meet the Southern Super Star King, His Majesty – NZM Bound TVC Rajdhani……… At 09.05 am sharp, I could see smoke emitting out from in between the greeny trees, sidelocked by hills….. GOC WDP 3A soon came into view hauling his majesty who was in pure red avatar that day…. No mismatching livery coaches were present….

With his usual charisma, His Majesty glided gracefully into PF # 2 at 09.08 am… on schedule. It gave me a wink in the form of flash of headlight accompanied by a greeting honk as if to say, it was pleased to meet me… (The greeting has been captured in the video which will be uploaded shortly).

Managalore SF was given a clear signal and proceeded its journey onwards in the same pace. Got another unscheduled halt for the crossover of Nagercoil –Gandhidham Weekly which offset all the time it gained from the speeder run…………….

Re# 727474-6                  
TTE now came to our S 3 coach to check the tickets. As anticipated, he allotted the seats by taking the difference fare and issued us a valid receipt.

Another few minutes of a speeder run, again crossing but this time, it was the turn of the NZM bound ERS duronto to haklt while the SF glided way though a bit slower. I noticed that the ERS NZM duronto was pathetic looking with Duronto livered vinyl wrapping torn off either partially or fully from most of the coaches.

At Mudeshwar, the large Shiva Statue and the ’18 storeyed Gopuram’ was visible. Took a quick nap in

one UB, allotted to us. At Bhatkal, the king had to again make an unscheduled halt which it did grumpily to allow TEN –LTT Fortnightly SF special to pass. KRTTC viz. Konkan Railway Technical Training Institute is situated at Bhatkal.

Another Crazy run and it was time to alight. 12133 Mangalore SF entered Byndoor Mookambika Road Station at Platform 1 – The one and only platform at the station…. Though it got three unscheduled halts, it maintained the same late run schedule to arrive 45 mins late at BYNR…. Overall it was the most satisfactory Journey in one of my favourite trains…. Though I have travelled many times between Mumbai & Madgaon by this train, it was my first journey in this train after MAO. The only Sad part is CR not making any move to allot a LHB rake for this train. This train deserves LHB so that it can live up further……..

My Rating:
Punctuality: 07/10 but considering the route and terrain in this single line section of viz KR it is worth to give 9.5/10
Cleanliness: 08/10
Speed: 10/10
Overall: 09/10

The 2A coaches are neat in this train. AB1 is a composite coach consisting of 3rd AC and 2nd AC accommodation. This is not an extra coach added for peak season.

As expected,no extension of 12133/4 or 12619/20 to Kerala. Infact no trains to Kerala via KR at all. Guess the RM read my mind. Mangalore got 2 new trains through KR,one to SBC and another to KCG. Quite satisfied to say the least...:)

Re# 680312-6                  
maq -hyd exp passes via kerala and its likely that kannur,calicut and palakkad will fall under general quota.As usual like all other trains 70 percent of the occupancy will be frm kerala as there is cureently only 1 train frm tvc and ers to hyb,its likely that many ppl would come to shornour and board this train.This train is actually more benefitial to kerala i guess

when you said 'Mangalore got 2 new trains through KR,one to SBC and another to KCG', I thought you were inferring that one train to SBC and another to KCG runs via KR. Thats it.

Yes, definitely this was a bad decision. Instead, RM could have changed the route of the already announced MAQ-KCG train via KJM. But i dont think any protests later will work

The new route takes around 15 hrs (around 780 kms). Route through Hassan - Tumkur takes around 11 hrs (around 390 kms). Distance is almost double, but due to Ghat sections in between takes more time. But Night trains in SBC - MAQ through ASK is very much needed. Many buses plys in this route taking advantage of lone night train, which travels through MYS, which is a longer route.

There's been some miscommunication. The biweekly train via CLT is the KCG express and not SBC Express. KCG has been misinterpreted as SBC.

I think you are mistaken there. The Bangalore-Mangalore weekly express announced in the Railway Budget was made a bi-weekly and this is routed via Calicut-Palghat. This is not MAQ-KCG Express

Read this... It is indeed the MAQ KCG and not the MAQ SBC Express.Why would the railways want to run a train to SBC via Kerala and TN?

Yes, it will definitely run via CAN-PGT-SA route only. There is no other report saying any other routes for this train.
But my only doubt is whether this is made a bi-weekly or still a weekly as per the original Rail Budget announcement

I hope it should be converted to Daily in next railway budget itself.
And wish in the next railway budget itself, MAQ-SBC Triweekly Express via Arsikere should be introduced.
Bcoz MAQ people need proper connectivity to their State capital via both Mysore and Arsikere.

happened here is many of them are unaware of the return train booking for 09419 and 01066. As usual for return train SR has to notify the date of commencement of booking, which they usually does bu notification through press release. this year they have not done this for both trains.

The chart for this train will be prepared only when the train #12133 (CST-MANJ) reaches Mangalore junction. If the train is late then chart preparation get delayed.

This trains always has a habit of running minimum of 1 hour late till Madgaon / Karwar n thereon due to slack it makes up time by reaching MAJN on time or a few minutes late.

The major reason I think is its insufficient time given for run between CSTM - TNA - PNVL belt. It gets just 63 minutes as against minimum required of 75 minutes due to crossings at CSTM, DIVA n PNVL. It gets delayed here by around 15 minutes triggering a chain of delays as it doesn't meet timely crossings.

I think, it should depart at 21.55 hours instead of 22.15 hours, just after Hussainsagar which

departs at 21.50 hours so that it reaches TNA by 22.35 n PNVL by 23.20. Meanwhile 21.58 KP aka Khopoli bound fast EMU can start at 22.02 from CST. This change will get uninterrupted run for this SF train n it can maintain its TT.

Your comments awaited.
Thanks...

No it cant happen because there is a Khopoli local at 21:58 which reaches Karjat at 23:53 and very soon after 15 mins Ltt - Coimbatore arrives at Karjat and Siddheshwar also follows it.

Possible bcoz LTT Coimbatore arrives Karjat at 00.07 hours followed by Siddeshwar at 00.32 hours. 22.58 Khopoli Local reaches Karjat at 23:53 and with 4 min delay it will reach at 23:57, 10 minutes before LTT CBE express...

Re# 707250-13                  
Got a reply from CR stating that it runs directly from CSTM to Thane without any halt in contrast to the fast trains having halts at 4 stations. There is no proposal for attaching LHB coaches due to limited supply by the board.
