Kolkata Gorakhpur PURVANCHAL EXPRESS Crosses the Iconic SAMPREETI SETU over Holy Ganges!!
Video link: click here
It was one fine morning that yours truly and Gaurav Sharma decided to explore the 130+ years old JUBILEE BRIDGE, and the new SAMPREETI SETU. And out of sheer madness and adrenaline rush, we decided to cross the entire bridge on foot, not once but twice. And icing on the cake was spotting the rumbling trains crossing the Holy Ganges. Sadly, it was the last video taken that day, as my camera's battery had almost died out....
more... So this video was taken in parts, comprising both my camera, and my mobile.
Powered by 22616 MGS WAP- 4 (Ex.GZB), the 15049 Kolkata Chitpur (KOAA)- Gorakhpur (GKP) PURVANCHAL Express (Via MAU) takes a sharp curve, ascends and crosses the bridge under caution, before accelerating and descending towards Hoogly Ghat. Enjoy the beautiful track sound and rumbling of the train over the bridge.
