Watch a short suburban journey that was done mainly to capture the parallel overtake by the Madurai bound Tejas Express. This also contains the captures of the Morning trains towards Chennai Egmore viz. Silambu Exp, Mannai Exp, Pothigai Exp, Kanyakumari Exp, Boat Mail, Nellai Express, Sethu Exp and Pearl City Exp.

began our Journey late in the evening at 19:00 hrs from Tiruchendur and reached Chennai the following morning at 11:00 hrs. Our train was hauled by GOC WDP-4D from Tiruchendur to Villupuram Jn.; and from there a RPM WAP-7 took charge. I hope you enjoy the Journey as much as I did.
