We arrive at Omkareshwar Road after crossing the Narmada river. The temple style dome of the station and the hermit in the foreground complete the pilgrimage effect!!

A cute looking MG caboose at Khandwa Jn. The BG train in the background is the Dadar-Amritsar Express which was surprisingly headed by a TKD WAG-7

A neat looking semaphore gantry on the approach to Wan Road

Passing through the Wan Tunnel built in 1960. This ghat section is part of the Gawilgarh hills

The start of a race with the Geetanjai Express powered by the 5000HP SRC WAP-4 #22272.

Our puny YDM-4 gives its best as it climbs up a ramp to cross the BSL-NGP BG line.

And MG has won!! We pass over the BG lines. The Geetanjali can be seen approaching the curve in the top right of the picture.

The ominous signs of BG invasion at Hingoli Deccan.

After a journey lasting 32 hours, we reach our destination - Purna Jn. The Meenakshi Express can be seen parked in a siding on the left of the picture.

The moon rises over a deserted looking Purna Jn. Note how the MG track has been uprooted from the platform on the left.
