Jabalpur Howrah FULL JOURNEY | Shaktipunj Express FEAT. Forests & Coalfields of Eastern India
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 фев 2018
- A Complete Journey from #Jabalpur to #Howrah on-board the #ShaktipunjExpress featuring some of the major coalfields and forested regions of #EasternIndia. This journey is set on the eve of India's 69th #RepublicDay.
Unlike its other alternative, the #Mumbai #Howrah #ImperialMail, the Shaktipunj Express takes a rather interesting route through #Katni, #Singrauli and #Chopan leading up to #GarhwaRoad, #Daltonganj, #Latehar, #Tori and #Barkakana finally joining the #NewDelhi Howrah Grand Chord at #Gomoh. Thereafter it follows the usual #Dhanbad - #Asansol - #Barddhaman route to Howrah.
This route passes through one of India's most important coal mining regions as well as the (in)famous forests along south-western Jharkhand. The #BetlaNationalPark, a part of the #Palamau Tiger Reserve, falls along this route.
This compilation depicts the departure of our train from Jabalpur at midnight but essentially kicks off next morning at #Bargawan. At sunrise, we are held up for two crossings; a freight train led by twin WDG-4s and the Kolkata Madar Express led by a #AbuRoad diesel. At #Singrauli, 19 kms from Bargawan, we meet our counterpart to Jabalpur led by a #Patratu diesel, just like us. Singrauli, emerging fast as India’s energy capital, is a major coal mining site and home to many major industries.No doubt, there are lumps and hills of coal all around and freight trains getting loaded around the tracks.
The landscape continues this way all the way to #Chopan, marked also by a small ghat section and the crossing of River Son glinting blue in the morning sunshine. The #Obra Dam is also seen across River Son. At Chopan, we have a link "upgrade" as our Patratu WDM-3A gives way to a Patratu WDP-4D and also reverse direction heading south-east towards #Garhwa.
Coal mining fields keep giving company but we are also joined by green forests all around, probably an extension of the #KaimurRange of the #Sonebhadra District. #Renukoot or #Renukut, as the Railways call it, serves a border as the forests and the coal mines disappear giving way to barren and semi-cultivated lands marked by uneven hillocks and rocky surfaces. This continues all the way to #GarhwaRoad where we join the bilateral and electrified tracks from #SonNagar. The crossings of River North Koel and River Kanhar en-route seem to be the lone sources of water.
Post #GarhwaRoad towards #Daltonganj , we start to encounter drastic changes in landscape as we make surges towards the #PalamauWildlifeSanctuary. The North Koel river keeps giving us company, even coming up right adjacent to the tracks at one point. We also encounter crossings of River Sadabah, River Amanat and River Auranga all of which are tributaries of North Koel.
A picturesque curve at the backdrop of a hill brings us to #Barwadih, some 8 km to the Betla National Park. There's no stopping the forests though, as we head towards #Latehar, through the #LateharRange. The run to #Tori from #Latehar takes us through a ghat section formed partly by the Latehar Range and the fringes of the Hazaribagh Range.
At Tori, I enjoy some tasty samosas from a local shop while relishing the sun dipping down the horizons set by the faraway hills. We keep moving steadily towards #Barkakana while encountering another region of coal mining around #McCluskieganj and #Khalari in the dipping light.
This rather long video rounds up with our train departing #Gomoh at the last hour of the night and skipping #Dankuni very early next morning, only to enter #Howrah at 4:45 am, delayed by some 30 minutes.
Another major attraction from this journey is the spotting of diesel locomotives from various sheds across India in their respective liveries. Features diesels from Abu Road, Gonda, Patratu, Lucknow, Ludhiana and Katni. Crossings are few and include the Kolkata Madar Express, the Patna Singrauli Link Express, the Jabaplur bound Shaktipunj Express, the Triveni Express, the Triveni Link Express from Barwadih and a few passenger trains.

In 2007 me along with my family rid this train....just awesome route... Thnx for refresh my memory
The route between Katni and Chopan via Singrauli is one of the most beautiful and serene route of Indian Railways. I usually travel in thw morning on this route and sunrise is awsome... Thanx for a beautiful video
Absolutely so. I have also traveled in Katni to Singrauli in the afternoon in another train and enjoyed each moment of it.
😥इन सब रुटो का कोई वीडियो नहीं बनाता लेकिन आपने बनाया,, 😊बहुत अच्छा लगा देखने में, 👌👌👌🌺💥❤🙏🙏
I live i n Jabalpur and I travel aproxx 17 time and I am only 13 years old and this is the maximum time I travel through this train my fav train ever
Flat whell is very nice 😊
इस चलचित्र को देखकर ऐसा लगा कि मानो हम भी गाड़ी में हैं ।मैंने बरसात के दिनों में यात्रा की है चारों तरफ हरियाली ही हरियाली और उसके बीच मे बरकाकाना के आगे से बारिश हो रही थी पहाडों मे धुंध छायी हुई थी अद्भुत दुनिया रंग-बिरंगी मध्यप्रदेश और झारखंड की धरती मजा आ गया ।रेल से बढिया भारत दर्शन का कोई दूसरा साधन हो ही नहीं सकता ।भाई साहब आपने बहुत मेहनत की और दिल खुश कर दिया । मै सिंगरौली से हूँ ।इस गाड़ी का उपनाम "पहाडों की रानी "भी हो सकता है ।
Superb journey journal. Wow. Never knew this beautiful route existed. McCluskey, McLeod Gunj .. wow remnants of British rule. Great job! Thanks for your efforts and sharing this with us!
My pleasure :) glad you liked it .. please keep following my channel!
I've fallen in love with this train's route after watching your video.. would love to travel on this route
thanks a lot! please go for it...worth it...
this route is most underrated and undocumented route in india and it is the one of my favourite railway routes in india, and I spent my childhood in chopan so i'm glad you made the video of this route. thank you so much.
wow....how's Chopan as a place? In one of my plans, I might need to stay a night at Chopan.
and I'm really glad you liked my video....indeed one of the least documented and explored routes!
As a place chopan is small town in sonebhadra district, it's a very good place situated at the bank of river sone. I don't know the present condition of the town because its almost 8 years since I left the town. If you are going to stay in chopan then try to explore the nearby place like (Obra city,Renukoot, Obra dam, Rihand Dam, agori Fort etc.) and travel to Robertsganj through train you might like the scenic view of this route.
many thanks for all the information! shall keep these in mind while planning :)
At Chopan I spend 12 years(My childhood).. my dad was ex railway employee and he was tansfer to chopan from Dhanbad due to introduce of Shaktipunj exp... Earlier Shaktipunj was run between Dhanbad to Chopan then Hwh to chopan later extended to Singrouli and then Jabalpur...feeling nostalgia after watching these video. Dad was retired from Chopan only... We use to called shaktipunj as Babar gari(In bengali).. Everyone known from TTE to Loco pilot and guard( TTE, Loco pilot and guard changed at chopan to barkakhana). Earlier there is 1 Ac cum First AC coach and that seperated in Chopan for maintainance and dad was look in matter. He was in Train lighting and taking care from Singrouli to renukut for train lighting he was incharge. Anyways nice video enjoy lots most imp felt nostalgia...
Still in some station announcment was 11447/11448 shaktipunj chopan exp
Beautiful journey

বেশ ভালো হয়েছে। আমরাও একইভাবে ঐ ট্রেনেই এসেছি। ট্রেন চার ঘন্টা লেট থাকায় একটু অন্য ভাবে উপভোগ করেছি। যাত্রা পথটা অপূর্ব সুন্দর। উল্টো দিকে হাওড়া থেকে জবলপুর পথটা কেমন লাগে সেটাও একবার দেখার ইচ্ছে আছে। দেখি সে সুযোগ হয় কিনা। এছাড়াও ১] রায়গাদা - কোরাপুট,
২] কোট্টাভালাসা - জগদলপুর, ৩] জগদলপুর - দান্তেওয়াড়া হয়ে আরও দক্ষিণে, ৪] মাদুরাই - কুইলন, ৫] গুয়াহাটি - ইটানগর -- এই পথগুলোও দেখতে পেলে ভালো হত।
Anek dhonyobad! Train journey r moja-i alada! Apni j sheta upobhog korte paren shune besh laglo. Shobai pare na sheta.😀

Well what else to say...this same railway section I mean Barkakaana -chop an section..we used to travel in our younger days ..going to our native village during summer vacations ..At that we used to travelled in Tatanagar-Pathankot express..Now it's Tata Jammu Tavi express. .then this section used to be single line..but now it's have been a double line and it's electrified too. Missing my golden days..thx mate for helping me to cherish my old golden days.
Is this route electrified by now? And what about doubling?
Can u plzz tell the app name used for measuring speed...btw great video i always used to travel thir route from Renukut to Howrah.
Awesome ❤️

Hey bro awesome compilation
thanks a lot!
Beautiful captures, one of those sections which is in my bucket list since ages, section after Chopan is pretty much similar to Talcher-Sambalpur section of ECoR !
Try doing it sometime....very soon though waha electric chalu ho jayega...
and BBS-Talcher-Sambalpur is one section I'm yet to touch!
Jharkhand Swarna jayanti express 12873 pe video banaiye.. Mai aapka bahut bada fan hun please
Nice information 👍
hey thanks!
Nice video
Very beautiful video.. loved the entire journey, editing and captions. It sparked a desire to travel through this route, one of the corridors of India which can be called as the 'Beauty and the beast'. - beauty is obvious ; beast because it is rife with problems for ages. Well done !
Loved your comment. Summed up the section so aptly. Would request you to try and explore this route once, specially during March when it will be red with "Palash" flowers. I myself have a strong wish for the same.
Lastly, thanks for watching my video, its a long one i understand! Please keep following my channel!
someday I will Pramit, some day - time and circumstances permitting. I hope till then the places and the journey will still be beautiful .
All the best :)
Fantastic intro, loved it
This route seems like gold, diesels and semaphores ! Dhanbad division seems to have taken up electrification seriously, wires may reach SGRL anytime :/ Anyways a fantastic compilation of a less explored route :D
ha electrification patches e hoche anek jaygay...but bhishon shundor route! :)
Konodin monsoon er pore pore ei route taate travel korar ichhe aache. Aro sundor laagbe ;)
Hrishik Mukherjee Can I accommodate this route on my trip Hrishik ?
Umm, this is in ECR and not in ECoR and the best train to explore this route is the Shaktipunj Express only. You will need 2 days extra to do this route
Hrishik Mukherjee already efication bahut late ho chuka hai sgrl me 2017 me hi ho jana chahiye tha ECR ka sgrl me sirf coal se lena dena hai baki yaha pe passenger facilities ,doubling, efication ka kaam bahut slow hai wahi WCR doubling+efication ka kaam bahut tezi se karwa raha hai
Awesome video
Thanks! :)
Nice super super video
Thanks a lot!
Finally I got it
I was looking for chopan shahdol route
Lovely coverage akdam !

Sure!
Superb 👍
Thanks! :)

Thanks!
Superb...
Thanks!
I'm a Bengali from Shaktinagar, Sonbhadra & visit my relatives in Kolkata very often. I board this train from Renukoot and always book either side lower or lower berth. The sights to see while the train is in motion and the breeze gently gushing over gives me positive vibes.
This route is so familiar to me that I can name many stations which comes across during the journey.
The best part of making a video from an unknown route is getting to know people (specially fellow Bengalis) who live in these parts. This is indeed an excellent route! Please keep watching!
Bhalo narration Korecho dada.🤗😎😎
narration r koi korlam? shob i to caption...
