Visakhapatnam/VSKP WAP7 30707 with 08552 Kirandul-Visakhapatnam/KRDL-VSKP special arriving at Borra Guhalu/BGHU

Visakhapatnam Kirandul express Left Visakhapatnam at 745 and reached Araku at 1150 1hr late dep and 1hr late arrival. Yesterday they are only 2 opp freight crossing in single line section. The train is late by an hour from Visakhapatnam in last 3 days and is a common scene. A fellow traveller in bus on retirn said that once on Sunday train left 1000 and arrived at 1630 Araku no water and food and the whole day is wasted for the tourists with no return option on that day or sightseeing. In retirn the train arrives Vskp 1-2 hrs on a daily basis. The late running is due to preference of dep and arrival of express trains on Vskp Platforms.
