Train 12610-SBC MAS SF Exp
From SBC to KPN
Loco:-RPM WAP4
Left...
more... home @ 7am, reached SBC around 7:15am. Looked on display(pf #) as i entered inside SBC station, SBC-NCJ Pass @ pf 1, KCG-SBC SF @ pf 2,SBC MAS SF @ pf 3 but most interesting was GKP-SBC SF, wch was displyd initially tht it would arrive @ 7:20am, latr chngd it to 7:30am n finally there was anncmnt tht it arrive on pf 4 @ 8:10am but it actually arrvd @ 7:50am itself(Rake was horrible,stinking n compltly packed). Sharp 8:00am 12610 started n reachd BNC in few mins but ltr was held up badly due to signals(mayb for ypr-kjm trains) n was also sad cos i saw a body hit by train on parallel track (where tht man’s head ¼ was missing n bleeding). Train strtd moving slowly n reachd WFD @ 9:01am then strtd to move in good speed (Crossings-MKM-SBC PASS,DPJ-SBC PASS,KCVL-SBC), this made train to reach BWT also late (crossings-SHATABDI) and once it crossed BWT startd blasting till KPN (I felt like RPM Monster got angry) n reachd KPN just 10 mins late on PF no 1.
Part-2
Took bus from KPN to BWT via KGF. I wantd to take pic of duronto so reachd BWT soon. Luckly i got chnce to take pics of Duronto, MKM-SBC PASS, SBC-MKM Pass. My train BWT-BNC Pass left BWT @ 15:30hrs sharp n was blstg till BNCE but was waiting for pf clearance/signal @ BNC for abt 15 mins. Reached home just now.
Observations:-
1)All UR/Non-AC coaches had 4 LCD TV’s in each coach(SWR Rockzzzz’)
2)SBC-MKM Pass alwys waits atleast 20mins @ BWT for MKM-SBC Pass to arrive
3)Met LP @ BWT (will upload pics) , he said somethg even more intrstg, He would return back to BWT today @ 22:00(app.) so i asked him-Do all trains have LP change @ BWT(In tamil)? He replyd 90% of trains, I ws curs to confirm this so waited for sheshadri’s arrivl n seriously der was LP change for sheshadri too @ BWT.
Will Upload more pics......
