A running metro rake will come to the Gate of Noapara carshed,couple with this new rake, & pull it inside, the shunter detaches simultaneously. This has to be done as IR Shunter has no authorization to enter Metro carshed due to presence of 3rd rail. This is supposed to take place after 9PM, after 4th line traffic becomes nil.
