Here is a rail-fanning cum Journey report undertaken in October 2013 (Sorry for posting late):
Station: KPD
Had gone 2 KPD that day for some work and had booked return by 12027 for safety. But work got over soon and thinking of some RFing, came to KPD at 14:05 hrs. Within minutes, Train # 12246 YPR-HWH drnt passed. At 14:25, A terribly late running YPR-Muzafarpur Exp came into PF # 2 and left after a stop of 2 minutes. I was standing at the entrance of PF # 1. There were no trains

expected on PF 1 or 2 until 1545. At 1547, 12609(with wap4) came and left after a 2-min halt. Then SBC-AJJ pass came onto PF # 2 at 1605 and left after 5-min halt. Then 12679(with WAP7) came and departed at its scheduled time. Then two trains came in to PF # 1 and Pf # 3. A late running Sangha(with WAP4) came and left and this made TPTY-CBE Intercity wait for 10 more minutes before it left. Shortly afterwards, Bagmati came and left too. This was followed by very late running WAP4 led 12510 that had 8 AC coaches in a bunch but in the middle of the rake. Meanwhile, 16381 came in 30-minutes before scheduled arr onto PF3 and left at its Scheduled dep. 12695 too came and went followed by 12607 and 12685 on PF # 1. On PF # 2, DD came followed by Brindavan with a tinme gap of around 30min. Finally my train came at 1913 and left at 1915 hrs with LGD Wap7. It was maintaining some delay but rchd BNC @ 2217 dep 2220 and SBC @ PF7 @ 2230 hrs sharp. Soup was being served and was provided within seconds of train dep. Dinner and ice cream followed. It was an amazing experience of RFing. Thanks for reading . Comments are Welcome :).
P.S. I might have missed some trains in this report.
