Meter Gauge train morning departure from Ahmedabad : Parallel action with BG Shunter..
Finally i got a chance to undergo a meter gauge train journey after nearly two decades. My earliest memories of MG train travel is nearly 20 years ago in the Hubli-Dharwad and Hubli-Gadag-Guntakal section. Hence I thought i will take up a MG train journey before the whole MG section is wiped off from Indian Railway network. So once I was in Ahmedabad, I decided to take a ride on MG Intercity Express which is one of the quickest MG trains of the ADI MSH section. As we depart ADI, on the adjacent side one can see a cute violet SBI YDM-4#6332 getting ready to depart with the Ahmedabad...
more... Khed Brahma passenger. As we snake out of the platform we meet the just arrived rake of Superstar Ashram SF Express. And as we advance further, the little YDM displays light chugging skills and we meet few shunting trains and an aeroplane on the way.. We get small parallel action with a shunter and eventually overtake it out of Ahmedabad!
