The Rupnarayan River forms the boundary between Howrah and Midnapur districts in the state of West Bengal. By the time it reaches Mecheda, it is quite a large river, nearly 600 m in width, surging forth to merge into the Ganga, a little south-east of this point. In this video, the 12703 Howrah Secunderabad Falaknuma Express blasts over the Rupnarayan River at its maximum permissible speed of 110 kmph on a wintry morning. The video is embellished by photographs taken by me of the Rupnarayan River from a previous road trip to Kolaghat. Observed in one of the photos is the chimneys of the Kolaghat Thermal Power Plant.
