The second and last part of an entire journey in the Ahmedabad Mumbai Central Double Decker Express. This part features the passage of the Double Decker train through southern Gujarat and Maharashtra from Surat to Mumbai Central.
Watch out for the constant 120 kmph run post Surat towards Valsad and Vapi. There are crossings trains like Secunderabad Porbander Express, Swaraj Express and the Gujarat Express. There is a surprise crossing in the form of the Science Express led by a WAG-9.
Valsad and Vapi both arrive late while we enter Maharashtra and continue our surge towards Mumbai. The scenic Vaitarna and a restriction through the bridge enables a fantastic view. Into Virar, the tall rise buildings give us the Mumbai feel for the first time as we storm through Vasai and Bhayandar and the creek in between.
We arrive at Mumbai Central at 13:54, delayed by 54 minutes with the August Kranti Rajdhani Express stranded at the adjacent platform.
My coach was C11 and seat was in Upper Deck numbered 101.
