The train had a good halt time at Ashokapuram station for around 10 mins, awaiting signal from Mysuru JN (MYS) side 😅😃. Henceforth the ALP got down, doing some preliminary checks before Departure.

#40247 is the 2nd Dual cab EMD of KJM to get Navy Blue scheme, after #40226 WDP-4D

Also, will be sharing the Humming sounds of the EMD while standing at Ashokapuram station.

Actually Ashokapuram's PF-1 loop line track (which also branches further towards Mysuru's Railway Central Workshop) is extended around 300m after the track switches, towards Chamarajanagar (CMNR) side...meant mainly for the works and duties of railway sleepers. Once I had met the contractor of this depot, he said that it's for the supply of new sleepers and bringing back of old ones, working in railway lines like Mysuru (MYS) - Hassan (HAS) and so on.
