Remember an interesting incident. While travelling by 4Dn Chennai Howrah Mail with family, I found my slippers were missing shortly after we had crossed Rajahmundry. A friend of mine had come to meet me at Vishakapatnam. He took me to a nearby market from where I bought a pair of slippers and then dropped me at the stn. It was possible because those days 4 Mail stopped at Vizag for 30 mns. However till my return my wife and children were anxiously waiting for me & worried if I would miss the train. But luckily all was well that ended well. For I got both new slippers and the train as well.

Netravati was converted to a daily sometime between 1992 and 1994. I think it was converted to a daily by cancelling the erstwhile 957/958 (later 6657/58) Dadar-Cochin/Mangalore express and increasing the frequency of Netravati, which ran on the same time slot.
so good to read such fantastic incidents from you PKV sir, these are always cherished. How are you btw?
Very fine Girish. Feel quite honoured that some old timers like you , Rahul Warrier and SRG still remember me.
happened with us. lost our luggages while coming to station at VSKP during 2000 trip. 3 of my uncles got back from station when 4dn mail was arriving VSKP at 12.45 hrs. My uncles returned in 13.10 hrs with the missing luggages & safely boarded the train which departed at 13.20 hrs.
