Its time for another sojourn down south. Id be going into CR (MRJ) territory (CSTM-PA-LD-MAO) and into KR ( KAWR) regions ( MAO-KAWR-KUDA-UD).Thereafter might try and do the MYS-CMNR-MYS MG trip. This is the only MG section on SWR after the SMET-TLGP MG railbus (another trip for that sometime in the future). And my return from SBC-DMM-GY-GTL-WADI-SUR-PA-KYN-DR-CSTM. It should be good. Besides the CSTM-PA stretch its all deisels all the way. So perhaps lots of WDP's, WDG's and WDM's all over the place.

BDTS-DRD & a BL WCAM @ VR


I happened to go to DRD the other day for some work. I took the Vapi passenger from BDTS in the morning. It wasnt too crowded but as we went along beyond BVI it did get jam packed. Surprsingly it was bang on time - it was at the DRD south cabin by 1158 (the scheduled arrival time at DRD is 1159) . Only that at the DRD cabin it waited for about 12 mins for the signal and hence got late. Anyway its not that the WCAM was doing a good job - its just that the IR has incorporated so much of slack time into their time-tables that almost every train is always bang on time - or even before time. A good justification to upgrade the slow-coach trains to a 'superfast' status and thereby extort more from the public. Very smart. The WCAM remains the same though. I guess tomorrow theyd get an old WDS to pull the rake and still charge superfast fares for passenger trains.
Anyway the DRD trip was good. I went to see the Dahanu beach in the evening. It was supposed to be great - but I got a feeling it wasnt that great. Just a medium sized expanse - with its quota of filth. Anyway the moment you are going to have more than a hundered persons visiting a place - filth is bound to accumulate. People in this region have little civic sense. Spitting is the norm here. Ptooooooooooo ........
I returned the next day by the Bhuj-Bandra Sayaji Nagari Exp. This stops at DRD and then a straight non-stop run till BVI and BDTS. It was running about 15 mins late (surprise) and so was able to catch this at DRD. But it was packed to capacity and I had to come standing in the general compartment the full way. But I was most impressed - we did DRD-BDTS in 2 hours flat. While going it had taken almost 3 hours.

Red, Black, Blue ... now ... GOLD

But wait .... I just figured it out .... The JW company just hired some MBA's and all this blue-black-red-gold is their dim-wit.

Did the big-J have kids ? You have to see this picture - some D'Vinci code for the answers. Anway we all know movies have the answer to everything in life. So take permission from the Church and go ahead and book your ticket and popcorn. Anyway just imagine if J-Junior comes to school and says - boss, J is my dad - he can <unprintable> you, he can <unprintable> you. The other kid would get shit scared.
BVI-BSR-VR boys unhappy
Some work is being undertaken at BVI and as a result all the CCG-VR trains have been cancelled and even BVI-BSR-VR ones. So all the boys who stay 'that' side of BVI are roaring with anger. Im surprised to see that the BEST is running extra buses for the hapless commuters since their pretty trains will be languishing in the yards. What about the times when the BEST boys were themselves sriking work for more than two days - did the WR/CR run extra trains for the bus boys ? This city is full of double standards. Rake in your favorite agendas to strike a chord with those in authority. And then sit back and relax. The agendas that are popular these days in Bombay are:
- The Maharashtra Maaza - Mee Mumbaikar - Jai Maharashtra - Marathi Manoos themes
- Throw out all non-marathi populace from Mumbai
- The Big-T (E) and his SS - I dont know if the outfit still functions
- The Big-T (W) and his cricket bat. Probably time for him to do commentry for gully cricket now
- Reservations in everything - from bus seats to IIT's and IIM's
- Booze
- Sex and drugs (this one and the previous one are perennial)
