I was waiting on platform 2 of Dahanu Road station for the 12931 BCT-ADI double decker AC express to whiz past.. 5 minutes before it was due, a container goods rake hauled by twin WAG5 passed heading towards Surat.. I thought that it may slow down the double decker which is just behind it.. I was further dissapointed when a goods train came on platform 2 at a speed of less than 20 km/hr and crossed the main down-line as it headed towards the Reliance Thermal Power Plant at Dahanu.. This blocked the mainline and I gave up hopes.. The double decker (if halted for the goods to cross its track) would never have been able to pick up speed by the time it passed Dahanu.. But luck was with me... The double decker was thankfully, horribly late.. After ten more minutes of waiting, it rushed past Dahanu Road station with a BRC WAP5 doing around a stunning 120 km/hr.. Note the extra Rajdhani coach just behind the engine, before the generator van.. Date of video: 29th march, 2014
