Trivandrum-Ernakulam Janshatabdi breezes through Kazhakuttam (Aug. 12, 2007)

[@anirudh27k]

Terrific video.!! Kazhakuttom,Kaniyapuram both were my top choices for doing RF..while i was in TVC for 3 months..!! This video made me nostalgic.!! :D

@indianrailways Small correction! 765 km is the inflated distance (chargeable distance). The actual distance covered by Madgaon JS is 572 km. I agree that average speeds in Kerala are quite pathetic.

Thanks!

[@ManiVijay]

Thanks! It was just a spontaneous comment - trying to establish a relationship with the train :-)

[@RojiRailways]

Amazing Catch...those golden diesel days 😍😍

[@ManiVijay]

@argenvia Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@DoctorTrainspotter]

This train brings back memories.. 😍

[@ManiVijay]

Did you travel on it often?

[@DoctorTrainspotter]

Mani Vijay Yes.. During 2006-09, I used to take the 2075 regularly to Trivandrum during my stay at Ernakulam.. I Remember once travelling in SL1 in 2007, and hearing all kinds of sounds the ALCo made.. :) Was studying in 7th std back then.. :)
The vendor we usually met in the train back then,has set up a tea shop near my home (in Trivandrum) now.. :)

[@DoctorTrainspotter]

Mani Vijay also this was the first train I travelled to Ernakulam after we moved there in 2006...

[@ManiVijay]

[@IncredibleIndianRailways]

Superb action by ERS Deemer. Specially your "Vaanga sir" made JS to blast at 100kmp. Sir, I hope you are a Tamilian ;)
