spotted…Near GI a small bridge work was left then sleepers are kept aside….In GI station, Vast area was there seems loop line may be coming for third line,also slight Platform works started,one can see a lone pole at new platform..Surprisingly Post GI continued till a distance ,from then old ballast of MG was there but new sleepers kept aside….then comes the Clumsy Urapaakam as the land was slightly cleared but was dirty…Post Urapakkam nice space was there also was clean till Vandalor….Land reduces and becoming clumsy once again as it nears Vandalor..Once looking at Vandalor station you will be knowing that heavy change is required there….Post Vandalor,uncleared land continues till Perungalatur….At perungalatur,I guess the third line will be laid on the space available there(You can understand while watching the video)….Post Peungalatur slight earth works done upto some distance…..from then again land was uncleared…..Then NH Road bridge crosses over us there just think ,is it possible to lay third track under the bridge(Kindly see the video and think)…..Then we had a Parallel run with Road,you will be understanding that some space of Road is required for tripling…Finally some works was happening at TBM outer….I hope you have got some update on CGL-TBM tripling…
