On a cold afternoon of the 2011 Winter, 16243 WDM- 3A of KGP chuggs and accelerates past Nalpur (NALR) station on SER's HWH- KGP stretch with the 1 hour late running 18001 Howrah (HWH)- Digha Flag Station (DGHA) KANDARI Express at its tow. Loved the way the station...
more... master and the ALP exchanged green flags in between them.
The train uses the Howrah- Santragachi- Uluberia- Mecheda- Tamluk- Kanthi- Ramnagar Bengal- Digha route. At Narayan Pakuria Murail (NPMR), the train branches off the main Howrah- Kharagpur line. The train has RSA (Rake sharing Arrangement) with 12857/12858 Howrah (HWH)- Digha (DGHA) TAMRALIPTA Superfast Express.
Btw, Digha is a very popular seashore of Bengal, and is quite close to another seashore Mandarmani. Train services to Digha started in the year 2004.
