hi everyone.recently traveled in this train from Kalyan to Belgaum.this journey was really different as compared to my earlier journey's.the thing dat was in lead role was my luck.so here i go
7th sept,Mumbai:it was 9pm and i left home for kalyan.i was running late but knew that could make it on time by taking a fast local.reached mulund station bought the tickets and as i left the counter and proceeded to the FOB,saw a kasara fast local leaving pf 3.was waiting near the indicator and soon the indicator was highlighting "9.23 S(karjat)fast local,PF 3" and "9.30 KYN slow local,pf 1".i decided to board the fast and so quickly went to pf 3.the local came in soon and even though there was...

lot of crowd i made good effort to get in and i was successful.i was thinking that this fast local will reach quickly and i'll board my train.but destiny had sum other things for me.the train left mulund and soon came to a halt.5 mins passed by still no movement.i asked a fellow traveller "this fast local will reach kalyan by wat time?".his answer really shocked me.he said"this ain't a fast local.it will become slow from thane".no such announcement was made at mulund so i was unaware of this thing.i was thinking in a positive way and thought that we'll make it!!!after the very long halt the train started moving and we made it to thane pf 5.a halt and soon we were moving,the local changed track from 3 line to 1st.on the entire way i was looking at the 3rd line to see whether the 11035 passes us or not.den at dombivali a express with a wdm passed us.my dad said see our train is gone we have missed it.but he is not a railfan and i started my investigation.the train dat passed us had a WDM whereas i thought 11035 will get a WCAM since chalukya(11035 and 11017 have rsa) also gets one and i had traveled in chalukya earlier.second was the train board they were in bright yellow colour while most trains leaving from DR have white bard.also the coach compostion of dat train was Sl coaches first den AC while 11035 had AC first den SL.so sumwhere i thought this will be the DR-SNSI express and ours is yet to come.
