After BTPN left, announcment and display of my train was made on PF1... Late by 4mins, BRC WAP5 #30052, Amul macho hunk pulled my train on PF1... i entered my coach B1 which was 2014 made... The coach was Bio-Toilet fitted and superclean... The AC was working fine and all the chargning points were running... After a 5 mins halt train got starter and started moving... Soon it cleared the loop and got into the brisk speed... the speed was very good till Bharuch... it rchd Bharuch with a delay of 5 mins... After Bharuch, i doorplated for a while just to get a glimpse of Golden bridge over Narmada river... Train got into a good speed again... The honk and of WAP5 was so soothing and the speed was constant 100+ (+/-5kmph)... Few trains crossed us but couldnot notice it as it was dark...Somewhere after Kosamba we crawled and stopped... But after stop again speed was good and we entered Surat 8-10 mins before time... It was a very good run and WAP5 not only covered the delay but made the train arrive at Surat before time... Soon the King, The fastest train of IR, made its grand entry on PF1... GZB WAP7 was in charge... After its departure and gap of 3-4 minutes, NZM bound Garib rath too made its entry on PF1 with TKD WAP7... After its arrival, ED WDM-3A soon pulled in with OKHA-RMM exp on PF2... i had peanut with tea somewhere between Bharuch - Surat...
Bang as per schedule we left Surat and only stopped at Navsari... I had my dinner after departure from Navsari...The run was good and it passed Bilimora at crawling speed...Soon it attained its speed and reached Valsad bang on time... To my surprise, no one boarded my coach...Soon we rchd Vapi and there were few who got in... After listening some songs, i decided to take a nap... I woke up at arnd 00.03 hours and soon find myself stationed at BSR... The train was again running before time... After its departure i decided to take a nap again...Woke up at KYN to again find tht my train was before time and it halted at KYN for some 10-12 mins...The run between KYN and KJT was decent...I had a brief sleep after Karjat and when i again woke up, found that we were looping in SVJR at PF1, n guess the time... 4.00am...40mins before time...it halted at SVJR for some 15 mins.. it entered Pune on PF3 at 4.20, Twenty mins before time...
SC Shatabdi was stationed at Pf5... and Deekshabhoomi entered at Pf2...
