LTT - GKP AC Special
ii) LTT - BSB 'Kamayani Express'
iii) GKP - BDTS Humsafar

LTT - GKP AC special and GKP - BDTS Humsafar arrived at same time at Katni jn. GKP - BDTS Humsafar does not have halt at Katni jn. and it skips it and halts at Katni Murwara Jn. which lies on the NKJ - Bina line.

after 4-5 minutes, Varanasi bound Kamayani appears from the curve arriving from Katni Murwara jn. side and going through the main line skipping Katni Jn. and overtaking LTT-GKP AC special. once the line towards Katni Murwara line was cleared, my train GKP - BDTS Humsafar was given proceed signal towards Katni Murwara jn. 30.06.2021
