The rail tracks have been craved in between the hills and the section gloom to its full fledged beauty during monsoons . If you are lucky you can see non-perennial 4-5 waterfalls on the section . The best part of this section is Chopan to Robertsganj . The whole rail route is majestic only few trains pass via few notable are Sgrl- bsb intercity , JSJ 12873-74, muri exp , triveni express .
