The Vapi - Virar Shuttle meets the legendary Paschim Express at a location between Sanjan and Bhilad stations of the Western Railway in the state of Gujarat.  Both trains were doing good speed and the engine of the shuttle was very shiny and good looking.

Railfan Arzan Kotval and I walked a lot to reach this spot and spent 3 to 4 hours over here.  It was very sunny but windy too, so it was bearable.
