Some of the snaps clicked by me on during travel from MLN to BIC in Vistadome coaches. This section comes under North Eastern railway, Lucknow division and It is MG and will never be converted to BG. This section covers the dense forest of Dudhwa and Katarnia Ghat. One can witness many wild animals such as Beer, Deer, Raindeer, Panther,Leopard and many different species of birds. This section reminds the old railway system where loco pilot exchange tokens at every station, Manual crossing gate and every station is surrounded of dense forest. Ghaghra river and Sharda river makes this section even more beautiful. The trains speed in forest is reduced to 30 40kmph so it takes more than 4 hour to cover 107KM.One should must travel on this section as we don't know when Govt can take decision for its GC. In these you can witness the best moments. ...

please wait...Translate to EnglishYo, check out some pics I took while traveling from MLN to BIC in Vistadome train coaches. This section is part of North Eastern railway, Lucknow division and it's on MG track, so no chance of conversion to BG. It goes through the dense forests of Dudhwa and Katarnia Ghat, where you can spot some real wild animals like Beer, Deer, Raindeer, Panther, Leopard, and various birds. It's like an old-school railway with loco pilots exchanging tokens at every station, and manual crossing gates. Plus, it's surrounded by lush green forests and two beautiful rivers, Ghaghra and Sharda. The train has to slow down to 30-40kmph in the forests, so it takes more than 4 hours to cover just 107km. You gotta take a trip on this route before the Govt decides to convert it to BG. Trust me, you'll witness some epic moments.
