RailFans don't miss their train. Why? Because they go to the station HOURS before the actual departure of their Train - to watch OTHER trains depart. - Prince Maan

SCR these days just keeps shocking me with trains like Simhapuri, Godavari, Gautami and VSKP duronto running like kings with almost 30-40 min early runs, and now this. For the first time in my observation, 17229 Sabari Exp has had such a good run. 17229 yesterday departed 03:00 hrs late from KPD and maintained the same delay till RU as there is no slack. Then, it goes on to recover 45 min in its run, covering RU-GNT in 5h 15 min. Then came the single line where Sabari again did not get delayed like every time but recovered almost 20 min of the delay and reached SC with 1h 55 min delay. Good job SCR!!Hope it gets a similar run today because the train is already late by 2hrs at Shoranur.
