Vizak Araku Ghats VISTADOME Full Journey Compilation TRAILER!! Trekking up the extreme Eastern Ghats!!
Video link: click here
Enjoy the TRAILER of the Full Journey Compilation on-board the FIRST VISTADOME coach of Indian Railways. To enjoy the beautiful Kottavalasa Araku Ghats section, the railways decided to introduce the SPECIAL coach and attach at the back end of the 58501 Visakhapatnam (VSKP) - Kirandul (KRDL) PASSENGER. The route not only offers some unbeatable scenic beauties, but also gives us a hindsight of the extreme engineering feet achieved some 50 years ago. From a height...

of 11 metres at Visakhapatnam, the train treks up to 1007 metres at Shimiliguda, which was the highest broad gauge railway station in Indian Railways till 2004. After Shimiliguda, the train descends a bit and reach Araku at 928 metres. The VISTADOME coach is detached here, as the remaining train heads to Kirandul.
Needless to say, it was simply an unbeatable experience. An excitement that would stay with me forever. And to share my beautiful experience with you all, I have covered almost the entire journey on my camera, and would be releasing the same this NOVEMBER. So for now, enjoy the TRAILER.
