-Before Lalitpur, Samta Express overtook our train.
-At Lalitpur, Mangla overtook Punjab Mail with WAP1 loco.
-Arrived Bhopal at 8:30 around with 3hrs delay, there was a food outlet at the PF (i forgot the name) punjab mail arrived. Ordered the food and quickly boarded the train as the signal was turned yellow. Food quality was just ok, atleast it was far better than the food served by pantry guyz.

-Punjab Mail reached kalyan at 10:30 and luck was favoring me as koyna was about to arrive kalyan on the adjacing PF (almost 1hr delay). We quickly took our luggage and headed to the opposite side on the same PF.
-CC was jam packed, finally got our seats after inquiring seat nos. from tte
-What a scenic beauty between kalyan and pune, it was heaven.
-Finally arrived pune at 13:20
