Mumbai-Pune journey just at the end of monsoons.
Date - 29 Sept 2019
Train - 16339 Mumbai CST Nagercoil Express
Place - Mumbai CST, Bhor Ghats
It Was a fantastic journey just as expected, except
...
more...
the train got late by 45 mins which I didn't mind as I had some buffer to catch my next train. The Bhor ghats looked extremely beautiful with the cloudy weather complimenting the greenery. There were small streams cascading down the rocks forming mini waterfalls which looked pleasing. But there is other side of the coin too. Monsoon had taken its toll 'tax' too. There were landslide scars on the hills, and the aftermath of landslides could be seen near the railway tracks.Overall, it was my best journey via Bhor Ghats till date.
Description:
