Patna - Vasco train 02742
I was watching the live running status of this train but when it come to Pernem 5.30am (already delayed) no live updates were showing at all. Looks like passengers alighted at Pernem as there is a problem in the Old Goa Tunnel (saw video water gushing in from the top ceiling of the inside fully lined tunnel see snapshot). Security there reported to KR about the problem at 4.40am it seems. Work going on.. Goa received heavy rains last 3 days

BNR & East Coast Railway Company Ltd during laying of Howrah Chennai Main line in the 1890s & 1900s rejected the survey done earlier & made the whole truck route Tunnel free. (55 tunnels were proposed in CKU-RJY alignment). See details made by me following 9th November, 1900 Journal on Howrah Chennai Rail connection in pics below
BNR is Bengal Nagpur Railway, predecessor of SER & ECoR.
ECRL is East Coast India Railway Ltd, predecessor of ECoR.
WRCL

is Waltair Railway Co. Ltd, predecessor to WAT division of ECoR.

But KRCL passes through Western Ghats region where there is narrow gap between Western Ghats & Arabian Sea. Hence KRCL is not tunnel free.
