Crossing the Ganga on the Farakka Barrage - New Jalpaiguri-Howrah Shatabdi (Mar. 2, 2013)

Harsh and I stood in neighboring doors to capture our train cross the mighty Ganga on the 2.24 km Farakka barrage. I observed water gushing through the opened sluice gates. A few minutes after that, we went through New Farakka station and then negotiated a huge curve to cross the feeder canal. This connects to the Hoogly river and is about 40 km long. Note the line from Azimganj-Ballarpur joining us from the left just before the feeder bridge. Feel free to check out the layout here - .

Departing from New Jalpaiguri and crossing Mahananda river - 12042 NJP-HWH Shatabdi (March 2, 2013)

After a successful exchange of our original seats for new 'trackside' ones, Harsh and I prepared ourselves for an exciting journey to Howrah. Promptly at 5.35 am, the horn was sounded and we set off towards Kishanganj. After crossing a late-running Brahmaputra Mail (headed towards platform 1A), the dual-cab WDP4D loco made us aware of its capabilities and we were at top speed by the time we crossed the Mahananda river. I stayed a few more minutes at the door soaking in the mist-filled atmosphere.

New Jalpaiguri Howrah Shatabdi Express crossing Ganga River | Massive 2.2km long Farakka Barrage ????????

Hi Guys!

Thanks for watching this video, hope you like it. If you did, don’t forget to hit the Like Button

One particular Joy in bringing this video in front of you is that I had struggled hard to learn this editing technique which I have used in this video; and today in presenting this video, I am happy to say that I have been successful in implementing this. In July 2019 Avinash & I had traveled to NFR for a small trip. Part of it was to travel in the then fastest Diesel hauled Shatabdi Express - 12042 New Jalpaiguri Howrah Shatabdi Express. The Journey compilation of this train would come later. But firstly I would like to present to you the crossing of the massive 2.2 km Farakka Barrage over the River Ganges. Both of us wanted to get a glimpse of both sides of the Bridge to take back with us as memories. So we recorded from one side for roughly half of the bridge and swapped sides. And when it came to presenting this video to you, it took quite some time to get it all right. The video is provided with explanatory captions. Hope you like. Please do let me know your thoughts.

Halts of 12041/2 - Bolpur Shantiniketan, New Farakka Jn., Malda Town, Barsoi Jn., Kishanganj

Used to do 130kmph in the Howrah - Barddhaman Chord section; only diesel hauled train to touch 130kmph. Now the entire route is electrified; it gets a Howrah (HWH) WAP-7 as link.

Fastest Siliguri - Kolkata train; covers 566kms in 8 hrs; average speed - 70kmph!

Please keep watching & stay subscribed. Cheers.

'Mishti' Sunrise!!! - 12042 New Jalpaiguri-Howrah Shatabdi (March 2, 2013)

I could not have asked for a better view at the door. A red ball could be seen at the horizon and was trying to break free from the surrounding mist. Track sounds and the loco horn (I love the Dippy horn) contributed to the mood. Though we were forced to slow down at places, we did not stop until Kishanganj. In the latter half of the video, you can feel the acceleration!

FYI - the title change from Misty Sunrise to Mishti Sunrise was inspired by a comment from my dear friend - Adithya Vaidyanathan. Thanks, Adithya!

Update from Kanisk Mitra - This a photo of Tea Garden as previously mention by our one of our Railway Fan from North Bengal... Actually in local term we call this Tea Garden Small Dooars. The reason is this Tea Garden do not have a factory. They pluck Tea Leaf and send it for processing to other big Tea Garden or Factory. This are usually very small Tea Garden... And with small capital you can come up... Thanks, Kanishk!
