WAG 9 has insane accleration tbh

---

@TLO: Talandu 3 km <--> 2 km @KHN: Khanyan   99km/h   5h 4m late
Bed roll given is quite clean. Much much better than what I experienced on Kalka Mail.

---

@KHN: Khanyan 2 km <--> 4 km @PDA: Pundooah   99km/h   5h 1m late
Top speed of only 100 kmph is a big hindrance tbh. Train would have covered up much of its delay had the train been running with a WAP-4/7 imo

---

@PDA: Pundooah 1 km <--> 4 km @SLG: Simlagarh   98km/h   4h 58m late
Crossed PDA

@RDUM: Rampur Dumra Jn   1km/h   3h 17m late
Stranded at Rampur Dumra Jn. Waiting in line to get access to the notorious Rajendra Setu.

---

@HTZU: Hathidah Upper 2 km <--> 1 km @RJO: Rajendra Pul   8km/h   3h 17m late
Crossed Rajendra Setu, and Chain Pulling has started. Local people are shit, everyone wants to get down near their homes. Need a solution for this chain pulling epidemic.

---

@GHX: Garhara 1 km <--> 2 km @BJU: Barauni Jn   14km/h   3h 46m late
Sonpur division is easily one of the worst divisions of the Indian Railways. Adding needless delays to trains is probably the favourite pass time of this division.

---

@BJU: Barauni Jn   0km/h   3h 50m late
Finally arrived Barauni after so much crawling

---

@BJU: Barauni Jn   0km/h  
Still standing @BJU. Idhar to koi improvement ki bhi expectation nahi hai ab. Top tier trolling after Rampur Dumra. Such a shit division. All that decrease in delay would overall account for nothing in ECR and NER. I pity for passengers travelling long distance in this train.

---

@BJU: Barauni Jn   3km/h  
Ye Barauni wale shayad bhul gaye hain ki hamari train bhi khadi hai station pe. Ya to bhang pi ke soye pade hain pata nahi

---

@BJU: Barauni Jn   1km/h  
This is so bad man, Godda-Gomtinagar OTed us, a Freight has also OTed us at Barauni. Such shit controlling. India also needs a DOGE. Such unnecessary wastage of resources.

---

@BJU: Barauni Jn   0km/h  
Some snaps since the train refuses to move from Barauni.

---

Kya pata. Bas itna pata hai ki Sonpur Division aur Barauni ke officials ko jitni gaali do kam hai. Unnecessarily rok rakha hai train ko Barauni me, koi logic nahi hai rok ke rakhne ka.

---

1.5 hrs completed at the esteemed Barauni Jn. The offcials love our train too much I guess. They refuse to part ways with it. Please learn when to let go, Barauni officials. This kind of toxic love is really harmful for health.

---

Mai niche utar ke GRP se baat kar raha tha to wo haste hue bolte hain ki bhaiya ye Bihar hai, yaha special train ko special treatment milta hai. Even the people are used to it, here train running on time is not a necessity, its a privilege.

---

@BJU: Barauni Jn   0km/h  
Finally departed. Never felt so happy to leave a station.

---

@NAZJ: NazirGanj 5 km <--> 1 km @UJP: Ujiarpur   27km/h
