Superb & ताड़ RF.👍
Railfaning at Dhaniakhali.Brief idea about the place-
🔶The station was inaugurated on 2003. Popularly known as "Halt" among passengers.
🔶Famous for production of "Dhonekhali tant" saree.
🔶Though designated as 'halt' and a few trains skip here,it lies on Chuchura-Dasghara/Tarakeswar road,hence it is important than many other stations of Chord line.
🔶The
...
more...
extinct Tarakeswar-Tribeni Martin Railways used to pass by here (the underpass is still present few metres ahead of the station)
🔶Tarakeswar-Magra New Line was proposed/sanctioned for construction
🔶One will NOT get trains at Maximum speed because the station falls on the "bad bank zone" between CDAE-CRAE stations and Permanent Speed Restriction of 100kmph is imposed.
