An evening outing at the ever aggressive NDLS-CNB route can result in fabulous memories which you can cherish for a long time to come.The slot in the evening is so congested that you can see the trains specially the East Bound Rajdhani's trailing each other that to at MPS with a few minutes gap. One such outing on the 17th Aug.,2013 was really one heck of an adventure...the memories from this trip surely were ever lasting for me.Now to make the scenario more perfect the section controllers forced the 14006 ANVT-SMI Lichchavi Express to enter into the loops for six gruesome overtakes.First it was the ER Queen led by WAP-7,which first thrashed the Lichchavi express at MPS,followed by the 12570 Jaynagar Garib Rath which also replicated the same aggression with a WAP-1.Now after two torrid overtakes,it was now time for the King of the Grand Chord Route aka the Fierce 12302 Howrah Rajdhani to display it's sheer magic. At 5:55 pm,the Jaynagar Garib Rath lashed past Dankaur and at 6:00 pm the starters again turned green one after another which automatically gave a warning sign about the approaching thunder.This license to blast was underestimated by the travelers of the Lichchavi exp. who had occupied the tracks to pass their time.Even the passerby were all in a hurry to cross the tracks while i on the other hand waited patiently at the platform just to catch that magic action which was moments away.Sadly before the King approached a stupid freight came crawling through the mainline and stopped at the station due to amber ahead. Knowing the fact that the freight could play a spoil sport i ran towards the LC side in order to have a good view of the MPS action of the ER King.Now as the freight had blocked the view of the approaching ER King ,i just started recording seeing the yellow light falling on the coaches of the sidelined Lichchavi exp.There it was the mighty King of Grand chord aka 12302 Howrah Rajdhani led by the ex-Duronto GZB WAP-7#30236 charged through the mainline with some terrific whining show just to warn the stupid people who had occupied the tracks as well as to warn the phunks who were busy crossing the level crossing even when the KING approached,and then rattled past the Dankaur station at it's full MPS which was accompanied by terrific track sounds. Also notice how the foolish phunks,who were earlier in a hurry, gaze the blasting ER King in awe.The magic aura of the ER King surely managed to grab the eye balls of all the commuters at that time.Enjoy the echo of the WAP7 honk as it passes through the flyover.
