Train- 51033 Mumbai CSMT Sainagar Shirdi Fast Passenger
Date- 24.11.2018
It was a quick 1 day trip to visit Shirdi temple and come back. For my onward Journey, I decided to take a Flight to Pune and go from there to Shirdi by 51033 Shirdi Fast Passenger. This train comes coupled with 51027 Mumbai CSMT Pandharpur Passenger on Thu, Fri & Sat. On the other 4 days it runs coupled with 51029 Mumbai CSMT Vijayapura Passenger. The 2 rakes run combined till Daund Jn; led by a diesel loco. From there, the Vijayapura/Pandharpur...

portion proceeds with the Diesel loco & the Shirdi Passenger is taken over by an Electric Loco (having to proceed in the reverse direction towards Manmad).
That day it was KYN WDG3A 13360 that led us from Pune to Daund; from where we got KYN WCAM3 21957 to haul our 8 coach consist to Shirdi. Our train reached Pune at 06:15; delayed by 25 mins. And soon after we reached; Delhi bound Goa Express departed. Our train was being uncoupled from the Pandharpur portion, while a KYN WCAM3 was being coupled to the other end. Pretty soon; a BSL WAP4 moved light through the mainline; it was powering the late running Azad Hind Express to Pune. After a few mins; the 12220 Secunderabad Mumbai LTT Duronto breezed past towards Pune, led by a GY WDP4D.
Minutes later, we were given the starter just as a parallel action was unfolding a little distance away from us. KJM WDP4D was shunting in the Daund Pune shuttle on to pf2; just as the 12025 Pune Secunderabad Shatabdi slowly skipped through the mainline. We departed at 06:50 hrs; delayed by 45 mins; and briskly accelerated and marched on to Sainagar Shirdi.
