Eventful Mumbai-Baroda journey that covered up delay of entire 35min created at Mumbai end
It wasn't a great start to my overnight journey to Baroda but the delayed start...
more... proved its worth by a blistering run that covered up entire delay of 35min.
My 12959 DDR-Bhuj SF Exp got a delayed start at DDR itself due to the failure of WAP5 30041 in DDR yard. A BRC WAP7 30476 came from BDTS to rescue the train.
We left Dadar (DDR) at 00:40hr instead of scheduled 00:05hr departure and arrived BRC at 0612hrs covering the entire section in mere 5hr32min.
Soon after the start to my journey, I realised that the 6000+ WAP7 horses had made their mind up to take the daunting task to cover the entire delay before I alight at Baroda.
Covering a 35min delay on a busy night of WR's VR-BRC section wasn't going to be an easy one. DDR-ST was an eventful stretch where we not only covered up partial delay but also had to overtake few trains. Post Surat it was purely all GREEEEN signals for us with full MPS run throughout till VS.
Check out the video and enjoy the feel of this journey.
