I was travelling in this train from SC-BZA in july a few weeks after its upgradation from special to bi weekly, i couldnt get tickets to chennai in any train, so booked by pinakini Exp, i thought that this would easily reach by 0540..The loco was a WAM (didnt notice the series)..it stopped at Kondapalli for around 10min and slowly crawled into BZA at 06:10..Had to take Sangamitra Exp to chennai..
I wanted to share my experience and an interesting thing, the PUNE WDM-3A was not detached at SC and was trailing till BZA, which again took incharge towards NS..This was the first time i saw such a thing happen, Can any member from BZA kindly note it next time during railfanning...
more... and throw some light on it..
