Nashua NH USA 950 blog postsSkipping Katni - Patna-Kurla Superfast (Jan. 2000) : I made sure I was awake to experience the memorable Katni skip. The train went through the station without much fuss. Being just two coaches away from the loco, I was able to enjoy the melodious two-tone horn along with superb chugging as the train accelerated out of the station. The bonus was the track sounds as we went over numerous points.

Achcha! When I traveled in Jan 2000, it stopped at Chheoki, so I assumed it's a technical halt. Actually, the reason for my assumption is when I traveled in Madras-Patna Exp. (predecessor of Sanghamitra) in 1989, the train halted at Chheoki with an announcement that Allahabad passengers should get down here. Isliye mujhe laga, Chheoki mein compulsory halt hai. Thanks for clearing that up :-)
