the station were not happy with the delay but i was rlly happy.soon announcement was made and the train came with a KYN WCAM-3.boarded the train,kept my luggage and was sitting at the empty sl berth.rpf guys were patrolling in the train.the train reached karjat and soon bankers were attached and we were ready to move.now it was time to hit the berth.in morning woke up wen we reached sangli.after a brief halt we moved and soon made it to miraj.halted there for 8 mins and moved.crossed the border and now we were n SCR.the speed was reduced as we had to cross the krishna river bridge.crossed the bridge and den the run was good.it was so cool that the fans had to be switched off.then came kudachi station and after a halt we moved.the speed was good in this part too.now came the TTE,they were from SCR.i showed them my E-ticket and also gave him the id proof but he didnt see it.at 8.05am we made it to Ghatprabha.here came the catering guys with nice hot idli/vada.i had breakfast and den was again busy njoying the climate.finally at 9am we reached belgaum and here u could just hear only one thing "kunda sweets".there were so many vendors selling this sweet.deboarded and here ends my trip.well it has happened many times dat i left home late but somehow i reach the station 10/15 mins before the trains arrival.this time even though i reached 20 mins after the train arrival time i was lucky enough to catch the train.was lucky this time but will be cautious from now on :)
