A Small RF Session at Vasco :-
After reaching home post a tiresome journey yesterday morning, today had to go to Vasco to drop my Dad at Vasco Railway Station onboard 18048 VSG HWH Express till MAO, post which he is supposed to be onboard 22633 TVC NZM Express till PNVL.

As usual Humming of EMDs from the freight line welcomed us as it does for any passenger who enters Vasco.
