good number of people got down here. Healthy patronage. This means that Vaibhav got a 3 seater for himself to sleep! Some 15 out of 78 seats got vacant... In which a dhoomakedhu gumbal of 4 packed up and got ready even before DSPT. They made such a scene that almost the entire 10+ other strangers followed them to the door thinking that SA will arrive in 2 minutes! Funny...

Salem and Erode together accounted for 2/3rds of the occupancy. 10 more for Tiruppur and 15 for CBE.

Tiruppur passengers including me are unfortunate that they have to silently witness food loading at ED and that loaded food happily served to passengers for CBE only! What a discrimination!! Okay guys... I will have a sumptuous meal at tiruppur a2b is what my heart told those catering folks.

Nothing good except the AC and performance of the ED P4.


At Tiruppur for 2244. 1545h. Kovai running late by 20m and has apparently taken the slot of 2647 Kongu. 2647 is yet to start. 2244 is following 2676 in the next block. Wonder where the overtake will be!

As a die hard fan of Kovai I sincerely wish the late running 2676 gives us a tough challenge at least upto MAP or JTJ.
