In the last ever Trip that I went on before the Lockdown started, I had been to Toothukudi (Tuticorin) for a training. For my return Journey, I decided to visit Tiruchendur Murugan Temple, one of 6 abodes of Lord Murugan in Tamilnadu. From there, I boarded the 16106 Tiruchendur - Chennai Egmore Express. This train is the only express train plying in the Tiruchendur - Tirunelveli branch line; it's coach composition and their positions are more or less fixed, owing to platform length issues of the station in this route. Therefore, the coach board indicators of all the halts in this route for this train are printed and displayed on Poles.

please wait...Translate to EnglishYo, lemme tell you about the last trip I took before the stupid lockdown. So, I went to Toothukudi (Tuticorin) for some boring-ass training. But on my way back, I decided to check out the Tiruchendur Murugan Temple, which is one of Lord Murugan's spots in Tamilnadu. After that, I hopped on the 16106 Tiruchendur - Chennai Egmore Express. This train is the only fancy one on the Tiruchendur - Tirunelveli branch line. The coaches and everything are pretty much set because the station is small or whatever. So, they got these indicator boards on poles at all the stops instead of on the platform.
We started our journey in the evening at 19:00 and reached Chennai the next morning at 11:00. The train was pulled by some GOC WDP-4D from Tiruchendur to Villupuram Jn., and then an RPM WAP-7 took over. Anyway, I hope you have as much fun reading about this journey as I did experiencing it.
please wait...Translate to HindiBro, before Lockdown Shuru Hui, maine Toothukudi (Tuticorin) ke liye ek training ke liye ek trip kiya tha. Wahan se return journey ke liye maine decide kiya ki Tiruchendur Murugan Temple, Lord Murugan ke 6 sthalo mein se ek, jaunga. Wahan se, maine 16106 Tiruchendur - Chennai Egmore Express train se board kiya. Ye train Tiruchendur -Tirunelveli branch line mein chalti hai aur ekmatra express train hai; iske coach positions fix hain, station ki platform length ki wajah se. Isliye is train ke saare halts ke coach board indicators poles par print hote hain.
Humne sham ko 19:00 baje Tiruchendur se safar shuru kiya aur agle subah 11:00 baje Chennai pahuche. Tiruchendur se Villupuram Jn. tak humara train GOC WDP-4D se tha; aur wahan se RPM WAP-7 ne charge liya. Ummeed hai ki tum bhi maje se Journey enjoy karoge.
