Re# 6110111-9              
Mixed reports on this. Some news came few months ago that there are some issues in ERS pit line for accommodating and maintaining this train. Later on it was mentioned that it is sorted.Ths fastest train currently is taking 10.5 hrs.
With speed restrictions in ERS-SRR by pass stretch and then again in PGT-CBE stretch, the only place where train can attain maximum speed is between SRR bypass- to PGT and then CBE-SBC. Not sure if train can cover entire end to end journey in 8-9 hrs !! For the same rake to return , the TT might end up being very odd. We will have to wait and see. Not sure if VB sleeper will be introduced later in this route

Tamil Nadu: These elephants are dying on rail tracks - can AI save them?

imaging, deployed along railway tracks near Madukkarai, a key elephant migratory route. These cameras detect elephants within 100ft of the tracks and alert forest and railway officials, allowing them to slow down trains and guide elephants away. The system has successfully detected nearly 400 elephant approaches, preventing potential accidents. This project, costing 72.4m rupees, was implemented in February and has already shown significant results. Tamil Nadu plans to expand the system to five other vulnerable areas in the state, including Coimbatore, Dharmapuri, Hosur, and Gudalur.

tracks ke saath lagaye gaye towers mein AI cameras lagaye gaye hain, jo thermal and visible light imaging ke liye capable hain. Ye cameras tracks ke 100ft ke andar haathiyon ko detect karte hain aur forest and railway officials ko alert karte hain, jisse woh trains ki speed kam kar sakte hain aur haathiyon ko dur kar sakte hain. System ne lagbhag 400 baar haathiyon ke aane ka pata laga kar potential accidents ko rokne mein sahayata ki hai. February mein implement kiya gaya yeh project, 72.4m rupees mein poora hua hai aur isne pehle hi kaafi ache results diye hain. Tamil Nadu ka plan hai ki yeh system state ke panch aur vulnerable areas mein expand kiya jaaye, jisme Coimbatore, Dharmapuri, Hosur, aur Gudalur shamil hain.
