The mighty veteran Purulia Express serving for decades, daily commuters' lifeline and witness to a Rising Bengal! - Soumyadip Mahato

Mini Railfanning at Asansol - January 2000 : After getting down from the Shatabdi loco, I was personally greeted by the station master who suggested I should take rest before heading back to Howrah. I politely declined and chose to loiter around the station enjoying some action. I was able to capture a couple of trains from the foot over bridge, a MUed WAG5HA-WAM4 entering the station and the departure of an extremely late Jammu Tawi - Sealdah Exp. with WAP1 #22017 in charge.
