Konkan Railways is a major rail line on India's western coast connecting Mumbai to Mangalore. It runs through a very difficult terrain of Western Ghats which almost made it impossible to build.
Despite these challenges it was constructed in 1990s at a cost of ₹ 3,555 Crore.

Why you not create video on Indore metro & Bhopal metro 🌚
@@Jayesh_knowledge i'll make it soon don't worry but i have a few other topics to cover before that, sorry.

E sreedharan will remembered in future for his contribution. Some people are not appreciated until they're no more
Alk credit gies to Mr./Barriester Nath pai and mr.Madhu Dantawate.and mr. Joshi who had explained this project can be done if enough finance is there if cingress govt.support this project ,but they did,nt do that time.
All great engineering marvels & development started only after 2014!
All round debelopment
All inclujive Debelobment
Sabka saath sabka vikaas
The Great Brahman! ❤
It's the vision of congress. Still no metro in Ahmedabad 😂😂😂😂😂
@@chandu8927 there is metro in ahemdabad. What are you talking about?
I really want this channel to become B1M of india and be way better.
B1M of India... What an Analogy! Hopefully, with him uploading regularly, this now seems possible.
It already is, in terms of lack of bias.
yess , point
I travel frequently from this route. This section is out of the world during Monsoons.
Which section are you talking about
E Sreedharan is a legendary person. He is a gem from Kerala ❤️
Oh just shut your trap
He was given Ticket for State Election but he lost that too very badly
@@1kunalsarkardoes that make him any less of a legend?
@@Maratha382 You guys go, he is from Kerala
He is Mallu
But won't support him when it counts, bs hypocrites
@@1kunalsarkar what do you mean by "you guys"? You don't even know me
Konkan Railway should be an independent entity inside Indian railways. It has marked itself as a unique venture with a good history.
No it shouldn't be. Indian railways gives no funds and new projects to be taken from Profits. All revenue from stations at Mumbai and Mangalore are taken away from western railway and Southern railway
@@anooprao4969 huh? I didn’t understand what you said at all.
@@francisaranha6514 what he's saying is that if KR merges with IR then IR will eat all the profits of KR and keep stalling new projects of KR. which isn't far-fetched to think considering how shit the management of IR is with Mumbai Surburban railway.
@@harshvengurlekar8814 Makes sense! But at same time. Konkan railway is limited by funding which profits alone cannot bring. The IR can help here.
Whereas the Konkan railway can provide knowledge on how to make IR profitable step by step.
We are suffering here by konkan railway
No funding
Old stations
No new trains
Konkan Railway line was made possible because of George Fernandes then Railway minister of India , Madhu Dandavate then Finance minister of India and Ramakrishna Hegde former chief minister of Karnataka state by forming Konkan Railway Corporation Limited in 1990 to finance the project as Indian Railways did not have funds to execute Konkan Railway line from Roha in Maharashtra state to Thokur in Karnataka state. Else this dream of people of west coast would not have fulfilled.
Whole railway line was completed in 1998 and first train ran complete length on 26 January 1998.
I am eye witness of construction of Konkan railway as rail line was right in front of my house in my childhood. And to tell you. It was not possible to construct by ordinary labours. These were super humans. Hard working. As I was told these were Keralites working in Goa.
I travelled yesterday only.
Manglore central to Lokmanya Tilak Terminus Mumbai.
The distance is 1186 Kms.
Did you travel in matsyagandha express?
@@ultradripstinct4513 Yes.
I travel on this route many times , I'm from lko ,my college is NITK in Surathkal,Manglore so I mostly take train from lko to Mumbai and Mumbai to manglore... It is very beautiful train route specially in mansion season😍😍😍🥰
E Shreedharan is Metro Man of India. Didn't know he was involved in Konkan Railway
He was the Railway Man first. Delhi walo ne rebrand ke diya 😂😂
I didn't know he's known as Metro man. He's known for Kokan Railway to us
Wow, I totally didn't knew that E Sreedharan was also involved in Kolkata Metro and Konkan Rail, before Delhi Metro.
How sad it is that, Such people don't get popular in their youth.
Btw, Great video as always.
Neither in their old age
@@1kunalsarkarexactly
He was a retired man when he began working on Konkan Railway. Please brush your knowledge. He retired from Railways in 1990. He was retained for future works. Konkan Railways came after 1992.
@@MadAtheist I accept my lack of knowledge, and Thanks for correcting me.
I HAVE LINKED 36 KMS ROHA TO SAWANTWADI TRACK. BROUGHT CSM MACHINE DRIVING MYSELF FROM FARIDABAD (PLASSER AND THEURER) TO ROHA AND OPERATED MYSELF AND MADE A TEAM OF OPERATORS ALSO. I FIRST LAID TRACK IN CONCRETE IN NATHUWADI TUNNEL 4.5 KMS.
E Sreedharan was also advisor of Dhaka Metro's MRT Line 6 construction project. He suggested the government of Bangladesh to make MRT Line 6 elevated because it is less costly and people feel more comfortable using elevated metro.
So grateful that this line was built 🙏
But sone people of Goa firmly opposed that project, a lot of protests done,😢
Me too!
@@kingrichards9295Fuck em
Thanks to Shri George Fernandes the minister of railways for this wonderful coastal regions Konkan Railway.
E. Sreedharan called the metro man who delivered Konkan railway truly deserves Bharat Ratna
The people of his own constituency failed him in 2021
Bhanupali- leh railway route is being implemented to connect leh with Indian railways
Work has not started. Pta nahi kab hoga. Tab Tak Kashmir and North east railway miracle hai
@@ShubhamMishrabroit will take atleast 2030s to get there.
For now railway is getting more experience and expertise with usbrl, MAHSR, Darjeeling - Sikkim line and Imphal - Moreh rail line.
near HP work has started at snail pace.
Better route is PTK to J.Ng. Mandi 164km. narrow gauge If converted into Broad gauge.Cover internal H😢P ecomically logistically .
@@johnchrist-cn8ql starting point punjab se kaam 3 saal pehle hi shuru ho gya tha...tunnels ka kaam chl rha hai
मा. मधु दंडवते यांना विसरलात 😊. Overall video is good. Provided adequate information about konkan railway. I am from kudal , one of the station on konkan railway. I often use konkan railway.
You forgot to mention Mr.Madhu Dandavate who was responsible for Konkan railway speedy process..
आपका वीडियो बनाने का तरीका बहुत ही बढ़िया और ज्ञानवर्धक है। ऐसे ही लगे रहिए, धन्यवाद। ❤
My father was one of the engineer working on konkan railway
Appreciate the english subtitles.
You are doing a wonderful job.
Thanks a lot for your generous contribution.
Everybody who works for the humanity must be appreciated.
Make video of Bangalore PRR2 covering hosur road, Bannerghatta road , Kanakapura road, Mysore road, Magadi Road... A recent tender was floated by BDA
Thanks for such a informative video 😊🙏
Konkan railway's blue print was developed by A B Walavalkar..
Fantastic video with good storytelling! Thanks for the effort you put in!

E sreedharan is a technocrat and this what India needs for its growth not corrupt bureaucrats 😼
Love the Project of Konkan Railway in Mangalore, Tulunadu
Hello you totally missed to give credit to dear classmate and very intelligent and famous person Mr R .Rajaram who served as chairman managing director of konkan railway and who played a key role in konkan railway corporation construction.please do reply your comments
Ramnagar me nahi Londa me train change karni padti thi
Ramnagar me koi railway station nahi hai
Broo you are wrong at 8.49 ...
Kalpataru is the company electrified Thokur to Bijoor to Verna.. and I am the one electrical Designer who completed this project upto end.
L&T done electrification from Verna to Ratnagiri.
Please don't share half half knowledge.
Great work for Engg, Labours and whole team
Bhai aapne video itni detail me aur interesting banai hai ki pura video dekhe bina Raha nahi gaya.Well done
Super information 👌
Excellent content.
Keep up the good work
Thanks a lot for your generous contribution.
Always grateful to leadership of all type and hard work of all class by their efforts we can travel safely cheaply
Now our ships are travelling 40,000 knots speed from Bhavnagar to Chennai within 2 hour's for proof you may visit any seaports.
I know for you and most of us quality matters over quantity but still try to post video atleast once in a week or 3 in whole month, algorithm will help to push your channel further.
You will make a good career in yt because your quality speak ❤
Great Work 👍
This is the most beautiful rail route in India specially in monsoon
Diesel locomotive ke sath bahut achcha lagta tha abhi electric ho gaya hai to boring lagta hai
Excellent projects..Big hats off to Shri.Shridharanji.
Destroying Sahyadri means Destroying Indian Nature... Entire Coutry depends on these Mountains... 2024 Summer we all experienced it😢😢.
Because of the crossings due to single track, most of the trains get delayed by atleast one hour. Doubling of the tracks should be given utmost priority.
Thanks to George Fernandez then Railway minister + E Sridharan for his engineering skills..
And Madhu Dandavate
Awesome video 👌

E Sreedharan deserves Bharat Ratna
It happened coz of Late George Fernandes, Railway minister .. .... .he also warned India about Chinese hostile intensions late back in 1998 which is now coming true !!!
Hey man really appreciate your work, i am from sawantwadi itself the train Sawantwadi Express was named after, and i too didn't know some things from this video.
भाई तुमने कोकण रेल्वे की हिस्ट्री तो बता दी पर कोकण रेल्वे के शिल्पकार जिन्होने खुद सरकार से बात करके इस सपने को साकार बना दिया उन श्री मधू दंडवते का नाम भी नहीं लिया उन महान हस्ती का क्या तूमने अध्ययन नही किया????
bro your delay brings me so curious...... and made video on eastern railway of howrah ☺☺
Kochi to munbai was 3 days after konkan railways neu route it takes 23 hours great 🙏🏻 wreedheran sir 🙏🏻
Best infra channel
Bro thumbnail is ammmazing😊
Ship ki jagah pe vo Casino Pride ki photo lagana thoda casual tha 😅😂
Irony is that Konkan railway made from Mumbai to Goa but Mumbai Goa highway they not able to finish.
Great content
Bro well explained good info but r u going so fast ⏩.
Love from Karnataka
now that's a good video
Hello, love your videos (thus comparing this video to past ones), please consider following feedback. 1. The specific section dedicated to Sreedharan was good insight into why project was completed in the way it was - please consider doing such sections in other videos as well where applicable. 2. The section for Swiss and mountain rail where you explain relevance of gradient and applicable technology is good too - please have such ‘possible solutions’ sections in other videos as well where there is a comparison with foreign projects. 3. I am sure you may be trying this already but anyway - you can try to make your videos more clickbaity, with such good videos I am sure your channel can grow more.
Anyone noticed expert looks like Henrik cklasen
Indian Railway or Japan Railway dono ko milkar poore indian Railway ko upgrade Karna chahiye
Minimum train ki speed 180-200 km/hr hona chahiye
But if you have noticed the famous mangalore express still running on icf coaches and 2 general class coach i guess its high time indian railway should upgrade it to lhb coaches with 4 general coaches two in front two at back i dont know what holding them doing such things
Netravati Express runs with modern LHB coaches. But both Matsyagandha and Mangalore Jn expresses have ICF coaches..that too very old. Netravati Express was rerouted thru' KR almost at the same time as Matsyagandha Express. This shows the apathy towards Kannadigas.
Thanks to George Fernandes & Shreedharan
Who like bro's sweet voice ?
Nice video...
Madhu dandavate mention him in video. He has special credit in this project
Hello bro very good video 🎉🎉❤
Adorable konkan rails
Love from Goa ❣️
Only 19 you don't know little chicks
In Ratnagiri when karboode tunnel was made, Labour presently were taken on evening time not one morning. You don't know how many have lost their lives. 😢😢😢
The tracks need to be doubled, currently single line is operational which takes long time. 🤔
Kokon railway lovers assemble ♥️❤️🔥
and people will still ask what happened in 70 years
Someone explain the picture at 1:58? Why do we have overhead electric lines with a steam engine?
the same reason we have overhead electric lines while operating diesel engines.
And people say A certain goverment didn't do development while they made this one of hardest route.
The narration and the editing is top notch. But pls improve on the captions. There were a lot of mistakes like Konkan to Kankan.
मधु दंडवते remembering for कोकण रेल्वे
Pehle 2 din kaha lagte the pehle bhi simple hota tha route
Mumbai se belagavi tak train se chale jao aur phir belagavi se goa ki train pakad lo simple
Dadar Central se Belagavi tak sharavati express ya Puducherry express se chale jao 11.30 ghante lagte hai aur phir waha se goa express se chale jao 4.40 min lagte hai uss route se 17 ghante lagte the aur Konkani railway route se 11 ghante lagte hai aur 2 train me pehle kaam hota tha abb ek hi train me kaam ho jaata hai
Main ismein kam kiya tha Goa mein madgaon
Wow❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤ gr8888888 brother
Good video
जार्ज फर्नांडीस साहब की याद आ रही है
