A short video of my journey in 07344 Kulem Vasco Da Gama passenger led by Pune WDG4D on 14th August 2024 convering the track doubling progress between Cansaulim and Sankval railway stations in Goa.
Unfortunately couldn't capture Sankval to Vasco Da Gama doubling works as my train waited for a long time for crossing 12741 at Sankval and departed only at 7.25 pm and it was dark outside by then.

07344 Kulem Vasco passenger with 7 coach ICF rake awaiting crossing of 12741 VSG PNBE SF express at Sankval railway station.

Some facts about the crossing on Wednesday 14th August 2024:
1. Sankval to Vasco Da Gama is single line section with no scope for crossing in between. Departure of 12741 from Vasco is 19.05 and arrival of 07344 at Vasco is

19.40.
2. Since VSG PF #2 and #3 are occupied by 17322 and 18047 respectively and PF #1 by outgoing 12741 our 07344 has to stranded at Sankval.
3. Sankval has only one platform and one mainline and other 3 tracks are Zuari Industries freight sidings.
4. Our train 07344 arrived Sankval at 18.55 and departed at 19.25 after 12741 had crossed us.
5. 07344 can easily arrive VSG at 19.15 after completing Sankval to Vasco track doubling.
6. A strange thing happened that day out train having scheduled halt at Sankval was halted on the mainline without PF whereas 12741 with no scheduled halt crossed us on the main platform line.
7. Both rakes of Vasco Kulem Vasco passenger trains are with 7 coach ICF rakes no DEMU rakes anymore. Loco link of my train was Pune WDG4D.
This needs to be updated on IRI, CC is 6 GS and 1 SLR in middle.
