#ETALDELECTRIFICATION
In a nutshell, I've closely identified the progress of electrification work between Jabalpur and Itarsi. The details are given below.
1. Jabalpur (excl.)-Narsinghpur work is almost done. Wiring is complete. Work left is only on the two bridges over Narmada river. I think they are deciding to electrify KEQ-JBP at the end. Pic is given in my trip blog.
2. The pic...

no. 1 & 2 gives the good news we all have been waiting for. The final section i.e, Kareli-Pipariya work has started. Holes have been dug from Gardarwara till Pipariya. You can see works-man digging holes for poles. Soon they'll reach Kareli.
3. Pipariya station is completely under wires now. Pics 3,4,5 shows the status. Wiring from PPI-BGRT is done. At few poles it is to be tightened. I've seen works-man tighten the wires, but due to immense speed of the train (thanks to ET shed monster WDP4b :p ) i couldn't capture those instants. Pics- 8,9 shows BRGT station status.
4. The only single line section of ET-ALD route i.e, BRGT-SQL has also begun to come under wires. Poles and wires are installed and only tightening needs to be done. Pics 9,10,11 are evident. Even bridge over TAWA river is getting poles to be installed.
5. The section after SQL is completed. Only tightening of wires is left at 4-5 poles.
Work is going on at decent pace. CORE is all set to trail the electrified section of ET-PPI in January and is working on that. I hope that was useful :)
