Hi Apurva: Regarding the catch siding - do you (or anyone else on this forum) know if the catch siding has been ever put to use to 'catch' a runaway train or to stall a train due to brake failure?

Great work, Guys!! This refutes the widely believed notion that this route & all the associated structures (such as tunnels) were built by the Brits. But, at the same time, shame on IR was neglecting such historical plaques - hope someone higher up at Bombay CST will take notice of this.

Nice piece of historical information that.. Thanks to Apurva & the Pune gang for having made that happen.Maybe such trips should be organized along other lines having historical significance. Great work folks...
