I have travelled in this train numerous time when I was in jsr. It started at 13:00. Would reach adra and loco reversal. Then it would move towards patherdih bazaaar and once again loco reversal. Would reach pka and would halt for 11448 to pass. Finally dhn at 19:00. Saw many people who had to go to dhn get down at patherdih, take auto to dhn and saved 1.5 hrs approx

I would have taken one of those several "Shankar-Parvati" buses that ply every hour between JSR & DHN :D!
Actually when this train was introduced in 2001/2 don't remember the exact year.....The DHN-JRI-PEH-BJE line was still active......
JRI-PEH was a diesel line.....
So the train used to start from DHN use the now obselete DHN 'Diamond Crossing' to crossover and diverge from the DHN-CRP
...
more...
line and speed towards JRI!
The DHN-JRI-PEH-BJE line was much faster than the present DHN-PKA-PEH-BJE line.....
Of the once DHN-JRI-PEH-BJE line only the PEH-BJE part remains.......
Actually the PKA-PEH-JRI line would be used by mostly freight trains which would bypass the busy DHN Jn using this bypass and crossed-over towards Chandrapura and Gomoh side using Kusunda........
Now of course, all of this is history :( !!!
