train will be given priority over NDLS-ASR super but super got green signal first which means we will be waiting for another 10min. In between On time Swarn Shatabdi arrived and departed soon. At 8:35PM my train got green signal and off we go. Train was crawling till Ambala City.. It gained speed after Ambala city but not much and NDLS-ASR super was ahead (i thought we would overtake at City but it was not the case). Eventually we overtook at Rajpura Jn and it was a thunderous overtake. Track burning time begins. WAP4 was showing the power thrashing everything coming ahead.
Reached at outskirt of LDH and was kept waiting. Arrived Ludhiana at 10:25pm and halted for 12min. At 10:37 we departed towards Jalandhar Cantt. Time to sleep for me as need to start my journey from Katra to Mata Vaishno Devi in the morning.
My train arrived its destination at 4:50AM.
