GR aur Ranakpur ki Yatra Meri Zubani !
So this was my first journey of FEB.
As dream😇 was to travel in Karnavati Exp◾(The train in Blue). But we had to Attain a function at Ahmedabad @20:00 Hence the most feasible option was GR🔲 .. Pre charting tkt was 💯➕ PQWL but post charting we got 2 MB. Than reached Borivali pf#6 at 13:05 and had a Amul Chocolate drink. which was just !ncredible .. within few mins. GR arrived with 🚄BRC WAP-5...
more... ~30045. as the link...
We finally reached our seats. and approx. 13:20 train departed from BVI. GR gained speed and skipped all the Suburban stsn at 100km/h⚡ speed. (approx.).
Than i took a Cup of Tomato soup..🍵
which was served hot and spicy wih few roasted bread piece in it..
the speed of GR was constantly varying between 100-120 km/h.⚡
As our Coach was G1 which was having Rajdhani type interior. with total 75 seats in it.(no SMB).😀
all seat were blue⏺ in colour..and
Not typical brown♦ colour of GR style.. rest all were having GR interior with SMB.. G6 was perfect Raj. livery with both (interior & exterior) and having 64 seats in it.
with some span of time I exchanged my seat with a SL seat..
for having Rf..
while RF i witnessed the work of WDFC. 🛤
Ground levelling was going on from (Vapi - Sachin..)
GR was just running like a Cheetah.🐆 and it reached SURAT at 15:55
with Bvi-St avg speed of 91km/h.⚡
Again loco was in acceleration mode. and was skipping intermediate stsn with nice speed.
Meanwhile we reached Bharuch. and tried the (Peanut's) which is most popular of this town..
and at 17:35 GR approached 🚨 VADODARA (BRC)🚨. And shortly departed from here. And GR reached Ahmedabad🌆 b/t at 19:15 🕖
with doing its journey (Bvi-Adi) in just 6h55 m. with an AVG. of 77km/h..⚡.
For Dee GR in WR territory its always 🏁🏁 and green.🚦..
Here we alighted and moved to clock room for keeping luggage.🛄
for 3 luggage it took 30₹ .
than we attained the function. and came to Ahmedabad at 23:30. .🕦
Immediately took the luggage 🛄and proceeded on pf#4 for Ranakpur exp.🚊 The pf was lush clean.. the cleaning staff was active at midnight also... for refreshment. AMUL🍦 is always near by .
and 14708 Arrived. all SL Coach 😣 were packed thoroughly approx.120 per coach. Even it was difficult to find a empty door. So much of WL..
(all due to cancellation of. 54805).
at early morning Quarter to Six. 🕕and we reached our destination SOH.
(after 8 😎months went to NWR)
Due to dark night 🌃with shinning Stars 🌟no pic could be captured of Doubling and electrification of NWR.
After a one night halt, its time to return. Again we approached Sirohi Rd. stsn and the same Ranakpur exp .. while walking at PF. , a alco🚂 was honking loudly from far itself. then it camed with double stack containers freight train. with having one more VTA WDM 3A 🚂on its back.
It was also chugging to its highest..
And soon Ranakpur Arr at SOH.
BGKT WDP 4B-40100 🚅was the link.
At ABR the S7 coach was having 120+😣 passengers in it. and WL ppl started booking of bays and Place near by wash basin.. When train departed from Palanpur. the picture becamed more worse. Handling increased steadily to 200 .. of S7 ..
On many UB there were 4 ppl🤐 sitting. on LB /MB 2 ppl sleeping. Corridor was jam packed. NO place to walk.
By observing this , father told (" Ranakpur ko Rail Ratna Award se sammanit karna chhaiye"👍)
for its occupancy. Coz whenever we tried in Ranakpur. we are ended up in RAC. (always PT gets exhausted). Due to overload of passenger. there were no water 💧in the taps. At Abu Road Cleaning staff cleaned the toilet. and filled up
the water. As due to RAC seat it was quite difficult to have sound sleep hence ,with flash light 💡 i was observing the doubling and electrification work of ADI - ABR stretch. Half of the coach got empty at Surat.. Which was an relaxing moment 🙂for WL passenger and others.. And after some hours Ranakpur arrived at Borivali pf#8.. .
