On a silent and peaceful night, 16046 WDM- 3A of BWN shed comes chugging and honking through a curve at the sectional MPS, and races past Ahmedpur Junction with the 13160 Jogbani (JBN)- Kolkata Chitpur Terminal (KOAA) Tri- Weekly Express at its tow.
Ahmedpur...
more... Junction is situated on ER's Rampurhat- Burdwan stretch. Earlier a narrow gauge line used to run from Ahmedpur to Katwa, hence the station getting the term "JUNCTION" as the suffix. Now the narrow gauge section is closed for gauge conversion.
The train, which is rarely captured by railfans for its odd timing, follows the Jogbani- Arariya Court- Purnia- Katihar- Harishchandrapur- Malda Town- New Farakka- Pakur- Rampurhat- Bolpur Shantiniketan- Burdwan- Naihati- Kolkata Chitpur Terminal route.
