3117/Σ Uttamuday Super ΣChain

Posting second part of the trip
I reached CNB @ 01:46 exactly by 12560.My parents who were supposed to be there by 22:00 previous day were not yet there .the reason being late running of MEMU between Lko and CNB
Their MEMU departed Lko exactly at 22:00 as against to its time 20:20 and took four and a half hours to reach kanpur ,to do 73 kms at approx. 15 kmph avg facing almost 10 overtakes.thats just preposterous and the best part is time taken between unnao and CNB was 25 minutes.yes...
more...

you heard it right
It means 4 hours for 55kms. I mean just wow
It's amazing isn't it?
But let's leave it behind
So they reached CNB around 02:30
We had to catch 12802 purushottam from CNB to Puri
We had sometime so we went to the waiting room
The upper class waiting room at cnb was brimming with people becoz of 12801,14055 being horribly late due to construction work at ALD which will highly affect us too but about that later
So I was there sitting in the waiting room constantly monitoring vthe trains movement
The train was running like hell and before time too
It OVERTOOK Patna Kota exp and avadh EXPRESS and crossed pnk at 04:00 so I went with my family to the allotted platform no. 5
JP ALD was standing there after that prayag Raj came on platform 6 .JP ald departed PARALLELY while the anvt rewa entered no. 4 but now to my surprise avadh came on pf 6 after PR departed
Where was my train the great purushottam
Then Kota Patna arrived on 7 and NDLS muv arrived on pf 5
Not a single train arrived on the pf it was originally allotted
"Platform no. Of *** train has been changed from ** to ** .kindly move slowly using the bridge " was the constant announcement
I thought about how much ill used are the resources here and how much ill management is here
BTW where the f was my train??
After passing 3 trains that were behind it finally the announcement was there my train will come at pf 4 I had no problems as those are adjacent ones so we just had to change sides
The train came in at 05:45 and departed at 06:00
I knew that becoz of so many trains departing before my train there will be so much congestion till ALD
And I was absolutely correct.
