Travelled in Gorakhdham Express from Ndls to Gkp on 23rd April.Due to the cc of the train 3ac has good availability so got RAC 58 cleared.Was alloted seat in B10 which was 21 made(212485/NE) and had decent maintenance considering the turnaround at BTI.Staff in this train has always been helpful.While waiting for the loco at the front end of pf the crew from PRJY divn taking over from Ndls sat beside me.Had a good chat with them and watched IPL match with them.37079 Pune WAP 7 was the link and the loco is a great honker.Had a good run got delayed at Cnb due to pf issue. Later LKO trolled us as had a good run from Cnb to Manaknagar but waited at outer for 30 mins.Post Bbk track upgradation work by NER is clearly visible no slowdowns and very few restrictions.Fencing for 130 kmph is clearly visible at some...

stretches .At some places Mumbai Ahmedabad strech like fencing with steel barriers is done for preventing CRO.Skipped the 128 yr old Elgin bridge at 110 kmph earlier there was slowdown due to change of channels on bridge now the work was completed so no restriction.

Third line work between Gonda kachari to Burhwal is also being done at good pace.Work between Maijapur to Gdk is little slow and Gdk to Gd also due to some encroaching structure near Gd.On all the stations of the strech pf work was ongoing for 3rd line.

Additional signal installation was done on most strech from Mankapur to Gorakhpur with Maghar Jagatbela alredy equipped with ABS.Missed taking the picture of automatic signal with A marker in NER territory.Also some more loco pics at Gkp as we reached with 1 hr delay due to the pf being occupied by Gkp Humsafar.Up line in morning appears to be a freight corridor as crossed more than 15/20 freight train along with 4/5 pass trains from Gkp like intercity .
