Trip to LKO. Part 1 Kmme to LKO.
While the original plan was to catch 03167 its abrupt cancellation led to me book the mega crawler 03151. I booked it in WL but luckily it got confirmed. ON Kmme normally we board trains from beginning or center of platform.
Here the AC coaches were right at the back and train halts for 1 minute.
Hence...

I ran to catch my coach and guess what. As per sequence A1,B1,B2. My booking was in B2 and on reaching I realized both doors were closed. Then I came back to B1 and that too closed. Finally I entered my coach through A1.

The external of ICF coaches were old and rusty and internal was OK.
We reached Dhanbad before time and train moved slowly (really crawling).
We got overtaken by Rnc-Pnbe JS at PNME.
At Gaya our coach occupancy increased. BBS Rajdhani ot us after SSM parallel ot.
Next morning I woke to realize train was late by an hour but made good recovery due to high slack.
The last I travelled on this line was in 2013 but still difficult to believe that still most part of section from BSB-FD-LKO is single line with my train getting looped for cross overs.
Reached LKO at 12.45 am delayed by 10 mins thanks to LKO outer that still delays trains for reason other than platform crunch (Hardly any trains when I reached).
