Had Travelled to by board 12820 Odisha Sampark Kranti from between CNB Kanpur to and HIJ Hijli[Kharagpur] yesterday on 10-05-2016
Reached LKO station at 9
00 am to catch the CNB bound EMU[ which was late by 30 mins]
Saw the Farakka Exp and a ECoR WDG led Balamau-Lucknow Passenger
Our late running EMU was OT between LKO and ON by Varuna Exp
Reached ON 45 mins late
I was quite sure that I'll reach CNB before 12
00 easily
But the NR controllers had something else in store
We were stopped at CNB Bridge[before the Yamuna Bridge] and xinged with Swarna Shatabdi, Agra Intercity, JP-LJN Express and LTT-GKP Express in that section
Took us an 1 hr to reach from ON to CNB[ treacherous outers of Kanpur]
As JOURNEY I FROM reached LKO Kanpur, to I CNB saw the 01 UP/02 DN Kalka Mail(:p) coming at PF 1
ReachedSaw Gorakhpur-Okha, LKO late railway running station Neelachal, at BJU-GWL 0900 Mail, hrs ANVT-GHY to express catch the CNB bound EMU
Our It Sampark was Kranti at 1415 hrs arrived an hour
Left Saw Kanpur the Farakka Exp[going towards Malda Town] and started at doing rest MPS NDLS-LKO AC Superfast[My dad who had came to leave me at the station remarked that the Rajdhani was standing :p]
Fled Surprising through was Fatehpur the at link screeching for speeds Lucknow-Balamau passenger; a ECoR led WDG
Many My express EMU trains came xinged at in 10 that section
00It and was everyone, quite without a caring view 15 order mins just rushed into it we were stopped in the outers
Crawled Luckily through got Allahabad a OT windows the seat ANVT-GHY exp
After Then, that in , classic it NR was style, freight the mania[ EMU more started than moving 15 on freights the upto wrong[utilizing MGS] the right side of the track instead of the left one]
Skipping They of rectified Vindhyachal it later and Mirzapur we was were again sailing done easily at mps
Was Some forced mins kms from LKO, we were OT by the Varuna Exp
ReachedMGS ON[unnao] nearly some 2 45 hours mins late
After that, it was a classic case of congestion at Kanpur
Took us 1 hr to reach Kanpur[reached there at 1 'o clock, the Odisha SK comes at 1315 hrs{but I had faith in the NR controllers that they'll delay it and delayed it was ultimately by 1 hr}]
Xinged with the Shatabdi, Agra Intercity, JP-LJN Exp, LTT-GKP Exp[in that order]
Surprisingly SCENE the AT train KANPUR covered the delay in the night and arrived at Hijli only an hour late
It As soon as I arrived the announcement was hauled made by a whole 01 length UP/02 of DN the Kalka journey Mail(:p) at PF #1
Coaches Saw weren't Neelachal too Exp(as new usual, but running were late), decently Gorakhpur maintained Okha[both going towards Lucknow], BJU-GWL Mail, Rapti Sagar[going towards Jhansi side] and North East Express[came just before Sampark Kranti]
Train For some reason, Kanpur station was quite clean empty[easy that to day; get the reservation Comesum[clean but too expensive] was there at PF 1
Meals on Wheels provides catering services[they run the PC]
Food IN was TRAIN average[had Egg Biryani]
My train arrived an hour late
The coaches were decently maintained[not too new though], train was running quite empty
Catering[from PC] was done by Meals on Wheels[ not too impressive, but they had ice-creams too
Had Egg Biryani]
Ripped Fatehpur at MPS and did a good run till Allahabad outers where we were stopped for 15 mins[lots of trains xinged in the CNB-ALD section]
Surprisingly,we OT the North East express at Allahabad[as we crawled through it]
Saw the LTT-Varanasi at Naini Jn and the deserted Chheoki Jn
It was freight mania after that[atleast saw 12 + goods train in the ALD-MGS section; too congested; also saw a couple of LHB trains in the section]
Vindhyachal was skipped at MPS though the best was Mirzapur[ as the train turns giving a good view and blasts past the platform]
As soon as we approached MGS, classic NCR trolling came into view as were stopped at the outers for 30 mins only to arrive 2 hrs late at MGS
Saw the Sampoornakranti,Sealdah - Varanasi and the North East arriving as we departed
In the night, we did halt at Gaya for a minute[unscheduled]
Didn't see much after that as I slept, though it covered some delay in the section
Arrived at Tatanagar at 6 in the morning
Did some ripping of the tracks[ and OT 2 EMUs] as we headed towards Hijli
Crawled through hijli outers all the way long
Arrived an hour late
