Was onboard the Secunderabad AC Duronto Express end to end. I have been traveling in this train since 2011, but never decided to make a full journey video. Even in this video i have skipped the night Mumbai suburban actions and continued from Kalaburagi Junction. I'll someday make a video of the night actions delicately soon..

भुज-अहमदाबाद के बीच शुरू हुई #NamoBharatRapidRail ट्रेन बेहद सुविधाजनक‌ है, सीटें बेहद कंफर्टेबल है, समय की बचत है और इसका लुक भी बेहद आकर्षक है।

The story of a lost railway

Kundala Valley Railway. The current Wayanad landslide triggers comparasion with the great flood of 1924 [Malayalam year 1099] where rains lashed out for 3 weeks straight and the Periyar river swallowed everything in it's wake. It led to tremendous loss of lives and also, the loss of a railway system. Initially built in 1902,as a bull driven monorail, mainly for transporting tea, it was converted to a Narrow gauge railway sometime later. Hardly a few images survive of this system. It was totally wrecked in the

floods beyond repair though the station premises can still be seen and some areas still have rails from that era.

TRAIN TRAVEL IN EUROPE: ITALY

I recently had a chance to take the Italian high speed rail branded as Frecciarossa by TrenItalia. I traveled on the Milan - Venice, Venice - Florence, Florence - Rome and Florence - Milan sectors.

The

competition to the partially-state owned TrenItalia is Italo - NTV which is privately owned. (Rakes used by Italo have a very interesting design where one boogie was shared between two cars, there's a picture out here)

The Frecciarossa trains are tested on speeds of 300kmph and above (based on the rake type). Operations on all the sectors i travelled on were limited to 250kmph.

There are several classes of travel and the pricing is very reasonable (at least for someone with the context of American railroad pricing). I paid between the range of €20 - €40 per sector across Business Class and Premium Economy class. It's variable, divided into fare classes most of which are non-refundable.

My Milan - Venice train ran into a service breakdown because of which it was delayed by 35 minutes. I got an email mentioning the policy where a traveller is entitled to a 25% refund for a delay between 30-59 minutes. Before I left my destination station, the refund was credited to me.

The best run was between Rome and Florence, the train ripped across the distance of 277kms in just about 1h20m, hitting 250kmph for most of it. It's the fastest run on a train that I've so far been on.

Pretty much the same here. Amtrak isn't far behind in terms of being non-utilitarian. The plight of their passenger railroad is a shame given the amount of money North America has.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
