A trip to the Eastern Ghat's Queen!!
Araku Valley
It was a fine morning!!! i woke up at 5.15am n got ready by 5.35am n had hot breakfast of noodles prepared by mom!!
I just packed my water bottle as m allergic to outside water a bit. n started for station by 5.50am.
Exchanged
...
more...
two autos, reached the station by 6.15am n met Krishna who was sitting idle at PF-4 where Kirandul Pass n Samata Exp were gossiping.
I saw the DBR VSKP WAG-5A getting into the pf to get attached to my pass. Seems he woke up from a sleep n came in lazily.
Soorya came at 6.40am n we all proceeded to the Sleeper coach wher our berths were booked.
In the meanwhile, the Samata Exp left with the Mad Honker WDM-3A.
We occupied our seats, but was disappointed as it wasn't a side seat rather it was facing away from the scene ahead zone. So i preferred to stay near the door.
The WAGGIE honked lazily n started its journey.
Believe or not, WAGGIE's power haul was impressive!!!!!!
The 11 coach train slowly crawled out, but the WAGGIE was nt in the mood of slow crap move!! So he gained 50-60kph in a short span.
"Itna uchelega kyunki guru ke parts mein DBR jo laga hain."
As the train gained its speed, i took a round in my coach!! Phewww, its a 1989's coach but was cleaned well. Was lil shaky but was able to handle good speed.
Till Malividu, the WAGGIE just sped lazily as the MPS was around 70kph.
WAGGIE was made to halt at Kottavalsa for some purpose!! Quite irritated halt but spooted two BALDIE's hauling a boxn coal wagon around 70kph proudly.
Looks like the WAGGIE felt humiliated. :P Heheheh
As the train reached every station, our favz admin Krishna jumped onto the pf to capture his worth collection of station boards.
I made my place near the door to capture at the tunnels n curves.
Being a Photograhper i make some risks to take better snaps!! :)
More ahead, stay tuned!!! ;-)

In short, this KK line is even more dangerous than the Bhor Ghat Line of India.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
