Extreme monsoon Rail-fanning!! 24 trains, 7 friends, and unlimited action of Diesels, and E-locos!!

On a wet monsoon day, when the city of Kolkata was more or less under water, I and a few crazy railfan friends decided to spare a day in a way-side station spotting trains. Location was decided to be Baruipara on HB Chord enroute. And the video takes you through all the train spotting that we did throughout the few hours.
