Great Great:Awesome Great Great Great
Few snippets taken during my trip to Palani before heading back home to Bangalore Cantt.... do have a look... (forgot to post them)

Extra info:- One train which was not recorded in the IRI database had come down to Palani which was the TJ - PLNI Special (06117 and 06118) which had come on April 5th and April 6th... got a chance to grab that pic and that train was being pulled by WAP-1 ED 22023.... interesting part was that it was using the rake of 06409/10/13/14/15/16 and 16843/44 trains.... and it
...
more...
didn't mention the TJ-PLNI Special TB....

Extra bonus point:- 16721 CBE-MDU Intercity Express was being pulled by offlink WAP-4 Bhusaval #22847..👍👍👍
