Mani Vijay 10 blog postsRacing through Ghatsila (Aug. 10) - As soon as we passed Ghatsila, Venkat and I calculated the average speed from Howrah - 214 km. in 2 hrs. 38 mts. = 81.27 kmph. Impressive, huh?
Mani Sir's Comments on his video :-
"I just loved the approach to Tatanagar - on a curve with appreciable height difference between the Up and Dn lines. After passing some elegant-looking WAM4s and WAG7s, we pulled into the station. So, after an impressive 81.08 kmph run (250 km in 3 hrs. 5 mts.), we made our first technical halt of the journey. The train had simply bludgeoned through the Kharagpur-Tata section in 1 hr. 26 mts. (average speed of 93.49 kmph)!"
