#Ratnagiri_to_Chiplun
After we arrived Ratnagiri, I saw that "Konkan Ka Raja" 10103 Mandovi Exp hauled with WDP4B #40018 was silently waiting for us on PF#3 and "Konkan Ka Pride" 50105 Diva-Sawantwadi Passenger was waited on PF#1. It was a great moment...

to see the two well maintained trains of KR was standing face to face. After a halt of 10 minutes, 10103 Mandovi Exp departed towards Madgaon on 2:34pm with overtaking Diva-Sawantwadi Passenger. Soon after 2-3 minutes we also departed towards our ahead journey. Blasted after Ratnagiri and soon in 10 minutes at 2:50 pm we arrived Bhoke stn for crossing of Mangala Lakshadweep Exp. It crossed us in 4 minutes and we departed again and entered the Dark Karbude Tunnel. Was thinking to take a video of full tunnel passing but My cam MP is too high so would take lots of time. So at end i decided to take video of Last 1 minute inside Karbude Tunnel.. I was successful to take a video. Average speed recorded in Karbude Tunnel was 65km/hr. I was getting bored now. We arrived Sangameshwar at 3:25 (late by 23 mins). Departed in 2 minutes and finally arrived and stopped at Kamathe at 3:55pm. We passed 20 minutes but still no appearance of crossing and too the opposite signal was Red. First i thought it was a loco failure of our train. Then after 30 minutes i hear that a man was talking on his mobile. He was talking that problem tooked placed inside a tunnel between Kamathe and Chiplun. First i thought it would be Double Decker Rakes which may have get stucked in tunnel. Next i thought it may be 04013 - VSG-NDLS AC Spl may have face loco failure. After 45 minutes finally a WDM2 of Kurla shed overtook us and went ahead. In just 10 minutes it came back with BCNA Rakes and a dead Pune WDM3A. Finally after 65 minutes of halt we were allowed to depart from small station. Quickly we arrived Chiplun in 20 minutes at 5:20. Amritsar - Kochuveli SF was also made to wait at Chiplun for some 30 minutes. It was hauled with WDM3D #11470 of Kalyan and a dead WDM3A #14558 of Kalyan
