Train : 12779 Vasco - H. Nizamuddin Goa SF Express
Loco : Pune WDP4D #40371
Reaching Madgaon by Goa Sampark Kranti from Delhi, it was time to board the Goa Express bound for Delhi, travelling up to Belagavi (or Belgaum). Being the 1st of January, the train was extremely packed, with hundreds of Waitlisted Passengers standing on the aisles. As my ticket was till Belagavi, it got confirmed, and I was lucky to land a Side Lower Berth, more so on my preferred side.
Of course, I did manage to screw up a nice clip of the Dudhsagar Falls. The rest of the video came out pretty well.
There is a bit of wind-noise until Kulem, but nothing after that.
Goa Express was introduced long before Konkan Railways became operational. Thus the train routes via, Margao, Londa, Belgaum, Miraj, Sangli, Satara, Pune, Daund, Manmad, Bhusawal, Khandwa, Itarsi, Bhopal, Jhansi, Gwalior, Agra and Mathura .
During its 39-hour-25-minute journey traversing a distance of about 2202 km, the train passes through Karnataka, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and passes through a small portion of Rajasthan at Dhaulpur without stopping.
The train is the only daily passenger express train to pass through the Dudhsagar Falls on the Braganza Ghat section. Also 12779 provides a good opportunity to passengers to enjoy the natural beauty of Goa en route and enjoy the scenic Vasco Da Gama to Londa Junction rail route.

This train is similar to trains like Karnataka Express, Telangana Express and Andhra Pradesh Express amongst others in providing convenient link between respective state capitals and New Delhi. Vasco da Gama (IR Code: VSG) is the nearest railhead to the capital of Goa, Panjim. Panjim or Panaji is not directly accessible by rail.
The train was introduced around 1987. At the time of introduction, rail links into Goa were Meter Gauge. Hence the train ran with a Broad Gauge and a Meter Gauge counterpart, the MG section between Vasco da Gama and Miraj, and the BG section between Miraj and Hazrat Nizamuddin. At the time of introduction the train was numbered 2479/2480, with maintenance in Delhi Railway Division of Northern Railway. Post gauge-conversion when the BG train ran the entire route, the train's maintenance was transferred to the Hubli Railway Division of the present day South Western Railway, and renumbered as 12779/12780.

This video should have not been released at all! The attachment of bankers at Kullem should have been shown, missing the falls was a blunder😮, bankers detached at Castle Rock not mentioned. The entire video would have been beautiful during the monsoon. Definitely not your best work!

[@_the_train_guy]

Agree. The train was super crowded that moving from my seat itself was impossible 😄

[@gsprasanna6382]

Should have chosen the monsoon period because it's moreorless off season,
