When returning from Gangavathi, I came to Ballari. I was surprised to see the station being painted afresh. Also some floral decoration and carpet, potted plants. Seems some function took place that day. Then I learnt it was GM inspection. Also inauguration of the renovated station.

A new dress worn for the Royal Ancient building! Had many memories since my childhood with this station and its premises. Would experience a royal feel whenever our car enters the IN drive way, then the portico (entry now restricted), and leaves through the OUT drive way when it comes for pick-up and drop like a chariot entering the royal palace. The enclosed PF 1 which is of the first of its kind for me would leave me awestruck ! Playing hide & seek with cousins while waiting for the 17228 which used to be generally late by an hour, witnessing the Loco reversal of HPT SBC passenger and many more.. And now it has been nearly a decade I suppose since I boarded a train from BAY.
