Devastating Rajdhani Express: Bhubaneshwar Rajdhani Accelerates To 130 Kmph Through Thick Fog

Some incredible high speed action! The Gurpa-Gujhandi Ghat section through the Chhota Nagpur Hills is marked by some sharp curves and gradients which impose a permanent speed restrictions on trains at around 65 kmph, and in certain sections, to as low as 20 kmph. As we emerge out of the ghats, the Erode WAP4 at the helm of the 22824 New Delhi Bhubaneshwar Rajdhani Express starts notching up to higher speeds. We cruise through Gujhandi at 80-90 kmph and break loose on our approach to Koderma, Jharkhand. Notwithstanding the fact that we have a halt there, we furiously accelerate and blast through the remnants of the sal forests at 130 kmph. Courtesy the monsoons and our height (we are around 380 metres above sea level, the highest point between Howrah and New Delhi on the Grand Chord), the moisture from the rains envelop us in a thick mist.
