Braganza Ghats are a stretch of hill section at the Karnataka - Goa border. This 26 km ghat section rail road connects coastal Goa to the hinterlands of Karnataka and other parts. It has three stations en route in the ghats - Caranzol, Doodhsagar and Sonaulim. It starts from Castle rock in Karnataka and ends up at Kulem in Goa. Both the uphill as well as the downhill trains have commercial halts at Castle Rock and Kulem which also serve as the stations for attachment and detachment of brakes.
Dudhsagar Falls (lit. 'Sea of Milk') is a four-tiered waterfall located on the Mandovi River in the Indian state of Goa. It is 60 km from Panaji by road and is located on the Belgaum-Vasco Da Gama rail route about 46 km east of Madgaon and 80 km south of Belgaum. Dudhsagar Falls is amongst India's tallest waterfalls with a height of 310 m (1017 feet) and an average width of 30 metres (100 feet).
The falls are located in the Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary and Mollem National Park among the Western Ghats. The falls are a punctuation mark in the journey of the Mandovi River from the Western Ghats to Panjim where it meets the Arabian sea. The area is surrounded by deciduous forests with rich biodiversity. This waterfall is also known as Tambdi Surla to some of the local people. The falls are not particularly spectacular during the dry season but during the monsoon season, however, the falls are fed by rains and form a huge force of water.
Pune Junction railway station (station code: PUNE) is the main railway junction of the city of Pune, India. It is one of the major railway junctions in Maharashtra. Pune Junction consists of 6 platforms. It also has a suburban train network.
There is a diesel locomotive shed located near the Ghorpuri railway station, 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) away from Pune station. It is one of three diesel sheds that belong to Central railway and the largest of the three.
Pune railway station serves as a stop for southbound trains from Mumbai, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. It also serves as a stop for northbound trains from Goa and Karnataka. The station is a major hub for freight transportation.
The Pune Suburban Railway operates on a single route, Pune Junction to Lonavala and its part, Shivajinagar to Talegaon. There are 15 trains that operate on the Pune-Lonavala route and 3 trains that operate on the Shivajinagar-Talegaon route.
There are eight DEMU trains that operate between the Pune Junction and Daund station. This section is electrified and is planned to be included into suburban rail.
The chances of starting DEMU services between Pune and Ahmednagar stations are increased as 24 stations of Daund-Ankai section will be merged with the Pune Rail Division. Currently Daund-Ankai section is under Solapur Rail Division. Merging with Pune Division will increase the chances of starting DEMU services between Ahmednagar and Pune railway station.
Ernakulam Junction railway station (also known as Ernakulam South, code: ERS) is the biggest railway station in the city of Kochi in Kerala, India. Controlling 376 train routes at a time, it is the busiest railway junction station in South India. At ₹158 crore (equivalent to ₹196 crore or US$24 million in 2023) in financial year 2018-19, it is the second largest in terms of passenger revenues in Kerala and the fifth largest in Southern Railway. It is an A1 classified station operated by the Southern Railway zone of the Indian Railways and comes under the Thiruvananthapuram railway division. Ernakulam Junction is also the first fully disabled-friendly railway station in India.
Ernakulam Jn is a railway junction with lines branching off from it to four different directions :
North towards Chennai/Bangalore (via Palakkad) and Mumbai (via Shoranur-Kozhikode)
South towards Thiruvananthapuram via Alappuzha-Kollam
South-west towards Willingdon Island and Cochin Harbour Terminus (CHTS)
East towards Thiruvananthapuram via Kottayam-Kollam

[@stanleydavla3960]

Very appreciative work. The beauty of konkan never before seen. Salute to your passion Chinmay.

[@rsrswamy2916]

I am a big fan of all your train videos. Especially since you mention the IST time at each sfage. Very useful for tourists. Thank you. But, i think Poorna Express runs on all days both from Pune end and Ernakulam end. Secondly, the departure time from Pune is 11 pm. You have rightly focused on the scenes in daytime from 6.30 am at Belgam to 6.30 pm at Udupi. Glorious videography and editing. Hats off!

[@shankershetty7466]

Bro Poorna express runs only on saturday ,once a week to Ernakulam

[@yash.kapoor]

Poorna express only runs once a week, although another train running between Pune and Ernakulam runs separately two days a week and uses the same rakes (coaches). But it runs on a different route and schedule as 22150 PUNE-ERS SF Express. Route is via Pune-Panvel-Ratnagiri-Madgaon, after which same route as Poorna express.

Thanks for your efforts ut was marvel of nature and hard work of the Indian railways and its workers

[@wilfredalexandercoelho8003]

It is really very wonderful to see so many Long Distance trains cutting across my Good old and beautiful place Londa Railway Junction station over the years since during my childhood days, during the 1940s till 1957 when there used to be only metre gauage trains hauled by Steam Loco Engines. The Engines were mostly YC series for Mail and Express trains and YD for Goods trains. There used to be only about 11 to 12 bogies and it would take about an hours journey between Belgaum to Londa. During those days there was no Electricity in this place but only kerosene Petromax lamps. But this place can be appreciated with it's lovely lush green forests.

Excellent Video but a very Inefficient train. It took so many reverses. IR should look to simplify the network it will improve the efficiency and speed.

[@pintujet7808]

[@lijigopal857]

They removed old excellent diesel locomotive considering fuel cost but railways do not know even if you spare 500 - 1000INR cash saftey of passenger is formost they do not take passenger life safety into conideration what to say tommorow they may have charging trains like ev but how will railways be cost friendly its as good as take 500INR more for fuel like diesel locomotive but why for godsake provide a dangerous electric locomotive tomorrow when some real mishap happens to passengers only then railways will understand 😢
