12289 Nagpur Duronto Express
I boarded my Kalyan-CST Slow Local which departs/ed from Kalyan at 6 pm. While my local was nearing CST, the rake of Howrah Duronto (stationary) as well as Nagpur Duronto (in motion) was seen. I arrived CST and checked 12289's departure platform and it was no.18.
I went there and kept waiting ... until it was 8:15, yet the rake was to be shunted over the platform. Finally at 8:17, the rake got shunted by the WCAM-3 itself in reverse direction (no WDS). Train departed from CST at 8:36...
