Old remnant of the steam engine era - water filling pipe.
-
2. Pics 8 - 13 : Some LHB train passed. It had Deen Dayalu, Antyodaya and AC coaches.
-
3. Pics 14 - 30 : Till HPT
- Industries, Power Plant, lot of freights.
- Electrification poles have been erected from KDN to a few Kms after DAJ - no progress from the last time I saw.
-
4. Pics 31 - 44: Hosapete.
- HPT to KBL the track has been laid, even over Tungabhadra river bridge. But still track linking and signalling is left. Similar to RDI-ASK line, where they are taking ages to complete the work even though the main track laying is complete.
- There is a sleeper manufacturing factory after HPT, there too some track issue I guess as the track is very close to the compound.
- The new personnel resting room can be seen in one pic.
- The line to KTY deviates immediately after the PF. Sugarcane field is next to it and then the line from KTY towards KBL joins.
-
5. Pics 45 - 51 : Munirabad and Hitnal.
- Hitnal has no PF, it is located just before the NH connecting Hosapete and Vijayapura.
-
Will continue in reply posts. Problem in uploading pics.

Travel SAFE

1. RailFanning does NOT MEAN dangerous pics/videos.
2. Doorplating pics/youtube videos are strictly FORBIDDEN in IRI.
3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
